What Is The Treatment For Bumps On The Skin?
yes I shave because I dont like hair and I have developed these skin growths (like bumps). I know its just skin but I have had sexual contact with other woman and they freak thinking its warts or something but I clearly know it isnt that because I got it from shaving. how do I make this go away? I mean I want to shave them but will bleed if I do.
