Itching pubic region and sensitive pubic hair

by dudewaitwhut, Dec 06, 2007 01:37PM
I've been experiencing itching around my scrotum, the base of my penis, and around the general pubic area since around October...  It started off as a general itch, but every now-and-then it gets kind of uncomfortable and there are little... "pinching" sensations that crop up every now and then along with high sensitivity around the base of my pubic hairs.  I talked about this with a doctor when I got my regular STD-tests, and they didn't see anything related to an STD.  I tried hydrocortisone cream, and it only slightly relieves it.  I do shave my pubic region around once a month or so, and about the time I last shaved I switched from a specialty shaving cream I started using over the summer back to the usual gillette cream I used to use about when it started.  I just think that if it was a reaction to the shaving cream then it would've stopped by now.  Any thoughts/suggestions how to stop the itching?

Shave in a warm shower or bath and use a new razor each time with a good quality shaving gel, such as King of Shaves.
