This may sound like a very specific challenge, but it's surprisingly common. Anytime there is hair removal or hair growth you can expect ingrown hairs and razor bumps to occur. In this article we will go over a few tips and tricks you can implement when you get an ingrown hair on your penis shaft.
Shaving is by far the most common cause of ingrown hairs we see on the penis shaft. The hair tends to grow upwards and can lead to frustrating bumps. As the hair is removed and grows back it can struggle to pierce through the skin leading to an ingrown hair on your penis.
If you lack a regular routine of moisturizing and exfoliation you are more prone to ingrown hairs on your penis. This doesn't need to be an intense routine, but utilizing a light body wash or light exfoliating scrub can be more than enough.
As expected you can easily have bad luck and experience ingrown hairs. It's especially unlucky to have an ingrown hair on your penis shaft, as that's a very personal area.
This is a common feeling, so don't be alarmed. If you are experiencing other irritation you should consult a medical professional. The safest route is to get tested for various STI's. If you are certain it is an ingrown hair below we will outline some steps you can take to mitigate common ingrown hairs.
As a first step to reducing the likelihood of an ingrown hair is to begin trimming instead of irritation shaving. To do so, use a trimmer that is specifically made for your private parts. Additionally, to start moisturizing and exfoliating use a scrub that is created for sensitive areas, as well as a soothing oil that is high in anti-inflammatory properties aimed at ingrown hairs.
