Shaved Lower Area, Have Razor Bumps, Burning Sensation Between Legs, Outside Vagina. How Will Scabs Heal?

Hi im 25 years old, Female. Not very sexual active. Recently, I got a boyfriend, and I decided to lean myself real nice in my lower area.. I have shaved before and had maybe 1 or 2 little razor bumps that would scab alittle due to picking out the hair. This time I shaved, and its like razor burn but in between my legs all on the outside of my vagina. Some areas are alot worst looking and im so embarrassed to think i might have a STD or something.. i google what herpes looks like and they look nothing like it. they just look like scabs exactly where i shaved.. should i just go in or wait it out and let them heal and take its course.

Hi,
It appears that you might be having ingrown hair follicle infection due to deep shaving.
Apply antibiotic cream locally.
If require go for one antibiotic medicine course.
Keep local part clean and dry.
Ok and take care.
