Description

A condition in which shaved beard hair curves into the skin, causing small lumps around hair follicles.

Overview

Razor bumps are a common skin condition that occurs with facial hair removal. It usually affects people with curly beards. The condition is also called pseudofolliculitis barbae.

Symptoms

Symptoms include clusters of small, inflamed bumps and pus-filled pimples that develop around hair follicles.

Treatments

Self-care measures such as letting the beard grow, shaving every other day, and shaving with an electric razor may help clear this condition.
