Help me stop Itching, PLEASE !

I have been dealing with itchy bumps under my armpits, in the center of my chest, around my nipples, around my navel, my vagina area, and my anal area for about 6 to 7 years. I believe the bumps appeared after I shaved. Yes, i shaved every piece of hair i saw off my body. I don't know if all these areas got infected or what, but no matter what I try they will not clear up or stop itching. Please help me.

Hello,
As the bumps appeared after shaving, it can be folliculitis skin. Apply warm compresses,Neosporin ointment and calamine lotion and avoid messing with it.You  can take anti-inflammatory pain killers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen.If the lumps persist then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist. For the itching take antihistaminics like Benadryl.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
