Try getting a anti-fog mirror for the shower and shaving after the steam has softened your skin.  Also, don't run the razor too many times in the opposite direction of your hair growth.  This is what irritates the skin the most.

This is a trick that helps. Try VICKS vaporub the menthol and camphor has a healing/soothing function that opens/prevents razor bumps.

the best one that works great is the vibrating razor MPower3 or something like that.. MP3 from gillette.. blades are expensive but nothing works as good or as close..dont nick yourself.. ouchh. soap is good some people are allergic to shaving creams soap up real good and go slowly and carefully..

I think shaving is the easiest.  Try doing it in a hot shower after you've been in it for a few minutes.  That will soften the hair and make the skin more able to tolerate the razor.  After you're done be sure to moisturize.  I use neosporin on my skin after shaving.  It sounds strange, but it was a tip I read on the internet and it's the best thing that ever happened to my sensitive skin.

Have someone do it for you. That would be the easiest using a safety razor. Good luck.\n\nChow!!

Maybe you have sensitive skin. Be sure to always use a new razor, but in your case it will probably still irritate the skin. I would suggest letting it grow out and then prepare for pain...waxing! The results will last for weeks and hopefully you won't be red under the arm for more than a few hours.

place an aloe vera leaf on the spot and cover it with a bandaid tonight, put fresh leaf on tomorrow, let air out tomorrow night.\n   If u do not have aloe, try neosporin for pain cream in stores.\naloe vera will heal it fast.

vinegar is good.  so is aloe vera.  I'm not sure how long it will take.  Don't bathe in hot water.  Not only will it hurt, but it will make things worse.

may sound bad but I have taken a clean razor blade and cut around a planters wart and pulled them out with pliers.  It leaves a hole for a while and its a little pain full, but it does work..  Wash with alcohol and keep it covered.

You razor might be too dull or not have enough blades on it.  The single bladed razors are the worst for nicks an cuts.  Try Veet,it's a new razorless shaver.  Or you can wax too.

Hi Kim, with neck problems the list can go on and on.  If you have neck problems it can be something as simple as a pulled muscle to something more complex like a swollen thyroid gland.  \n\nSeeing a proper doctor can help you fix your medical ailments.  If you feel a slight burning sensation in your arm or finger tips whenever you move your neck, it is probably a pinched nerve.  It's no big deal, it can happen sometimes when a muscle knots up in your neck or upper back and it may be unpleasant but will go away in a day or two.  If you've had it for a couple of months, your doctor may ask you to have surgery to fix it.  \n\nMost commonly your doctor (IF the pain is severe enough) will prescribe to you a light muscle relaxer or suggest you take Aleve or extra strength Tylenol to relieve the pain.\n\nIf you feel like you can only move your neck to one side, you probably have a really wicked cramp that needs to be worked out.  If you cannot go to a massage therapist, I recommend doing the following:  Sit in a tub of warm water as hot as you can stand it for as long as you can stand it (obviously not so hot it can burn you and not too hot if you have heart problems, are taking blood thinners or have a pacemaker) and slowly work your neck starting with your chin turned to your shoulder and then touching your chest and then over to your other shoulder.  Do that a few times and step out and it should help.  NEVER do full circles with your neck as you can do permanent nerve/spinal damage with this.  \n\nAlternating hot packs/cold packs for 15 min at a time can help loosen the muscle group.  Inbetween switching, just make sure to stretch your neck out a bit each time.  \n\nYou can also take a tennis ball and hold it between your upper back and a wall and roll it across your back that way (or have someone else roll it for you) and slowly massage your neck with it.  The tennis ball is hard enough to work out your muscles, but soft enough to not hurt you.\n\nI recommend a good family practitioner if you need to see a doctor.  You can also see a Chiropractor (M.D. with extra musculo-skeletal training) an Osteopathic Doctor (a doctor who uses a full body approach to healing and who also uses the same chiropractic movements), an Ear Nose and Throat specialist, (Otolaryngology Doctor), they can help you determine if it's something more serious than a muscle glitch, however they usually require a referral from your primary care doc.  You can also see a physical therapist who can prescribe certain exercises for you to do.  Massage therapists also work well for that (massage school students often charge less for massages and are always observed by an instructor).\n\nIf it is a simple sprain, you can also learn simple stretching exercises that can help you avoid the injury in the future.  \n\nI also want to add that you may need a new pillow or a new mattress.  If you are not getting proper spinal alignment while you sleep, your neck can start to hurt from the weight of an improperly positioned support system.\n\nIt's also possible you may need new shoes.  When you are not getting proper support for your feet, you can have all sorts of alignment problems in your body and before you know it, you hurt all over.  If you can't afford new shoes, try getting arch support or memory foam inserts for your feet.  You can also see an Orthopedic Doctor (skeletal doctor) or a Podiatrist (foot doctor) for that.  If your injury is related to sports a Sports Medicine Doctor (who usually has training in all of the above) can help you out also.\n\nI hope this helps you and that your road to healing comes as painlessly as possible.  Good luck!

The only thing you can do is put ice on it or run cold water over it.I am a C.N.A. and they  say to definitly avoid sabs and lintamints.I know one old wives tale was to put butter on a burn but do not do that. Serioiusly. just run cold water over it or apply ice. Hope ya feel better.

I would try something natural like aloe vera after washing with soap and water; and if she is old enough (you didn't mention age), tylenol for the pain.  Watch the site for signs of infection; reddness, pain, tenderness or drainage. Also a small ice pack wrapped in a cloth to prevent skin burn will help.  A hug always helps too.

Yes it is razor burn try putting a little moisturising or double base cream on it to cool it down. In future wax girl

First run cold water over it or put ice on. This will numb it a bit. then you can put some numbing cream or gel on if you want maximum releif. You can also put on the gel that goes on sunburns. That works really well.

I agree with people who have suggested seeing a doctor to have them frozen off.\n\nI had two under my armpits which I shaved off with a razor, it burned a little but not much and they haven't come back. The ones on your armpit you could probably do on your own. However, I had one of the back of my neck that I also cut off with scissors and it hurt terribly. I do NOT recommend cutting off the ones on you abs and neck on your own unless you have a very high pain tolerance. You also might cause yourself scars. (I didn't care about scars when I did mine because it's in an area my hair covers.)
