Do not use a razor use a product called magic shave in the silver can. Remember silver can.  Get it in the other cans and your whole house will smell like rotten eggs.

Folliculitis is an infection of the hair follicles.  \n\nIf you have folliculitis, try the following measures:\n\n    * Use an antibacterial soap to wash the infected area. If the infection is on your scalp or beard, use a shampoo containing selenium or propylene glycol. Your doctor may also prescribe a medicated shampoo with ketoconazole (Nizoral Topical).\n    * Apply warm, wet compresses 3 to 6 times a day to help folliculitis heal faster and stop the itching or pain. Wash your hands before applying a compress. To make a compress, moisten a clean cloth or piece of gauze with warm water. Place it over the infected area until it begins to cool (usually 5 to 10 minutes). You can make compresses with:\n          o Burow's solution, which you can buy without a prescription in many drugstores and supermarkets.\n          o White vinegar solution. Mix 1 Tbsp(15 mL) of white vinegar and 1.33 cups(315 mL) of water.

Well there are a few differnt reasons it can happen. Infection of the hair folicles, Irritation , and ingrown hairs.\n\nThe best way to shave is to shave with a new or sharp razor and shaving cream for sensative skin, shave in one direction to limit the irritation, and do not apply alot of pressure. After you get done clean off with water, and let it air dry. Drying it with a towel will only irritate your skin, and possibly clog your pores. After it dries use rubbing alcohol a couple of times a day until the irritation goes down.\n\nAnd yes it will itch but the Alcohol helps, and if you continue to shave that will go away as well.

You have pretty much nailed on the head the reasons why its not desirable to shave against the grain on a man's face:\n- Leads to ingrown hairs\n- Leads to razor bumps, burn, irritation & redness\n\nMost men suffer from these symptoms, so its a bad idea to shave against the grain.  Women can do it on their legs, but other areas where you can get curly hairs tend to be more prone to ingrown hairs.\n\nThe best advice I got from shaving is this article (see link below), which claims:\n"You want to shave downward on your face and neck, WITH the direction your whiskers grow. At least for the first pass, a North-to-South stroke will get rid of most of your stubble without irritating your skin. If you want a closer shave, wet your face again, lather up again, and shave very lightly upward, against the grain, in a South-to-North direction. Most men’s skin is too sensitive to stand up to an against-the-grain shave without redness, razor burn, and even ingrown hairs, but if you can deal with it, go gently."\n\nRead more about how to get the best shave at this link - really a must read for all men!\nhttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6886845\n\nHope this helps

You might have shampooed too hard and caused an ingrown hair.  They cause big ol' bumps--like pimples, too.  Get somebody to check it and see if there is a hair wanting to be pulled out with tweezers.  ONLY if there IS a hair!!!

You should go to a dermatologist and get something topical to put on it.  You might also want to think of getting a really good skin care routine cleaning your face every morning and night with products that work with your skin.  That will help keep you from having such problems as much.

Shave carefully\n\nShaving is a common and inexpensive way to remove unwanted hair. But shaving can cause skin irritations, especially if your skin is thin, dry or very sensitive. For a smooth shave:\n\nPress a warm wash cloth on your skin before shaving to soften the hair. Or shave after a warm bath or shower. \nDon't shave dry skin, which can cause razor burn. Apply shaving cream, lotion or gel before shaving to protect and lubricate your skin. \nUse a clean, sharp razor. If using an electric razor, don't use the closest setting, which can irritate the skin. \nShave in the direction of hair growth, not against it. \nRinse your skin afterwards with warm water. \nIf irritation does occur, apply a lotion that doesn't contain ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. Though alcohol and alcohol-based products may feel cooling, they don't really soothe irritated skin because the alcohol evaporates rapidly from the skin.

also try "ingrow go" by Skindoctors--it removes ingrown hair from all parts of the body.

The best way to think of ingrowing hair is like it is trapped under the skin. The best way I have found to stop it is to exfoliate the skin. This should relly be done on a regular basis as the aim is to prevent them bofrore they develop. There are lots of exfoliators on the market, including ones specifically designed to stop ingrowing hair.

It's much more likely that you have ingrown hairs from going to the barbershop.  You might try a solution called "TendSkin".  It works REALLY well at lessening appearance of razor bumps/ingrown hairs.  The URL is below

Your hair growth is determined by you genes, not by your habits.  If our lifestyles affected how much hair we had then we'd all be hairy in the winter like a dog.  Anyway, the first thing you need to do is start using shaving cream or gel to lubricate your skin when you shave...this will help to keep your skin healthy and reduce the chances of ingrown hairs and other skin problems associated with shaving.\n\nAs for the five o'clock shadow look, you need to wait until you have an evenly developed beard so you won't look like you have a case of the mange.  Once you get whiskers growing over all of your face then you can get yourself a beard trimmer with a short guard and then start doing your part to the keep the 1980s alive with that Don Johnson Miami Vice look.

I would suggest going to your doctor if it is not already gone.  It could be an infected pore or ingrown hair as well.

Wax it;) or I'm guessing just don't shave too many times in that area or direction.  Make sure it is moisturized with shaving cream before you shave.

Ouch.... good preventative care is the best way to take care of it.  Now that you have them to some extend you'll have to suffer, but try rubbing unscented anti-persperant over the affected area.  It has great moisturizers for shaved parts.
