Bumps on labia

Okay, so i shave down there.. and i have been noticing these bumps.. not clustered.. usually just one or two and not very big.
They can sometimes be a little itchy.
When i notice them appear which usually is a few days after i shave i apply neosporin to them and they dissappear within a day or two.
Is this just an ingrown hair or what???
I never use to get them.. i just started getting them the last few months and its making me really paranoid so i am constantly checking down there for every little bump.

Try a sensitive skin shaving cream.

Yeah.  It is good to use a cream when you shave and a fresh blade too.  See what happens after.  It's not herpes if that is what you think.  Herpes are painful, especially when they are in that area of a woman's body.

They sound like ingrown hairs to me.  Do you use a shaving cream?  You could be extra sensitive to what ever you are using when shaving.
