This is most likely razor irritation/folliculitis or fungal infection after shaving and friction. Avoid shaving, keep area dry, and please consult for proper examination and treatment.

Dear Patient,
Your symptoms of bumps, itching, and burning in the genital area after shaving and intercourse are most likely due to skin irritation, folliculitis, or a mild fungal infection. Shaving can cause tiny cuts allowing bacteria or fungi to irritate the skin. Since there is no pus, it is less likely to be a severe bacterial infection, but the discomfort can be significant.
What you should do
- Keep the area clean and dry
- Avoid further shaving or waxing until healed
- Wear loose cotton clothing to reduce friction
- Apply a mild antiseptic or antifungal cream (like clotrimazole) as advised
- Avoid sexual activity until symptoms improve
Medicines
- Topical antifungal or antibacterial creams if needed
- Oral antihistamines can help reduce itching
- Pain relief medicine if discomfort is severe
Consult me if
- Pus formation, spreading redness, or severe pain
- Fever or swollen lymph nodes
- Symptoms not improving after 5–7 days of proper care
For further guidance and personalized treatment you may consult me on Practo anytime.

The symptoms you're describing (bumps without pus, intense internal itching, burning sensation, and discomfort when sitting or walking) started about 6 days after shaving (on Dec 24) and 3 days after intercourse (on Dec 27), with onset around Dec 30.This timeline and description most commonly points to irritation from shaving, such as:
Razor burn — which causes red, irritated skin, burning, and itching shortly after shaving.
Ingrown hairs (pseudofolliculitis) — where shaved hairs curl back into the skin, leading to red bumps, itching, tenderness, and sometimes a burning feeling. These often appear a few days after shaving and can worsen with friction (like from clothing, walking, or intercourse).
Folliculitis — inflammation of the hair follicles, which can follow shaving (especially if minor nicks/micro-cuts occurred), causing itchy, burning bumps without pus if it's not yet heavily infected.
The recent intercourse could have added friction/irritation to already sensitive post-shave skin, making symptoms flare up or feel worse internally (e.g., if the area is raw or inflamed near mucosal tissue).Less commonly, but worth considering:
A mild yeast infection or irritation that got triggered by the shave + friction (yeast thrives in warm/moist areas and can cause intense itching/burning).
Contact irritation from soaps, lubricants, laundry detergent, or fabrics.
