I have after-shave bumps

Published by

I am 30 years of age. I have After Shave Bumps which have refused to go away despite all kinds of antibiotics and other drugs. Kindly help me prescribe what I could use.

Some forms of After Shave Bumps are due to the irritation of the skin by the shaving razor or shaving foam. Therefore, if every attempt have been used to treat the bumps and all have failed, your best bet will be to stop shaving and grow a beard. This way, the after shaving bumps will cease.
