[|Human|] I shaved my pubic areas couple of weeks ago and when the hair staired growing back there was a couple or infected follicles. One is located on the inside of my leg got very big and red. This morning it busted letting out a smelly puss. Do I need to go to the Dr or can this be treated over the counter?
[|AI|]  Thanks for contacting ChatDoctorI am sorry to hear that you are having infected hair follicles after shaving. This is a common occurrence. Depending on the size of the infected hair just the act of Chat Doctor.  Keep the area clean with soap and water. You can clean out the boil with peroxide too. If the area does not heal and keeps red and painful then an oral antibiotic maybe need to completely resolve the infection. Hope this answers your question. Please contact us again with your questions.
