Just kidding,,hahaa funny like, my belt line I will low trim with a beard trimmer now only, with my work and belt and sweat and bending down its just an active and sensitive area to razor shaving, have not tried a moisturizing shaving creme but I doubt it would help with my lifestyle.
But really, i would think that at any given day that a girl or guy is dealing with this problem and if a guy is nursing one is that a gross out turn off?
Personally if I was going down town, I would not like to see them.

If it is herpes, they also develop a pus filled vessel and are painful. But the difference between herpes and an ingrown hair is that with ingrown hairs you will usually only see one, whereas in herpes cases you will usually see multiple bumps in the gentital area and sometimes on the lip or in the mouth. The best solution is to go see your doctor because herpes can and will repeatedly come back depending on how strong your immune system is whereas folliculitis does not keep coming back.
In the case of herpes they will give you anti-viral medication to keep the breakouts to a minimum but once you get herpes you will have it for life. Herpes is not an std (but genital herpes is) and you can get it from anyone or anywhere because the herpes virus can live on surfaces for 30 min. Which means you could wipe your mouth with a towel that is infected with it, taste your sisters soup with the same spoon she used, or shave with a razor someone else used and in all 3 cases if the herpes virus was present, you will contract it
Most everyone either has herpes 1 (the cold sore herpes) or will get it as it is very common and is easy to spread. Even when you don't have an outbreak you can still pass it on if you are shedding the virus.
Also if you have it make sure you do not take L-arginine for sexual enhancement. Herpes needs L-arginine to grow and L-Lysine will minimize it. Keep in mind many foods have L-arginine in it like chocolate and as long as your L-Lysine levels are higher than L-arginine then you will make great progress in keeping breakouts to a minimum.
