Your symptoms are suggestive of folliculitis. Folliculitis is a common skin condition in which hair follicles become inflamed. It's usually caused by a bacterial, fungal infection and even an inflammation from ingrown hairs. At first it may look like small red bumps or white-headed pimples around hair follicles. You may require antibiotics, antihistamines, antacids and a topical antiseptic. These following steps may help:
- Maintain a high level of hygiene.
- Consider another form of hair removal
- Wax less frequently
- Apply hot water and wash with an antiseptic soap before removing the hair
- Apply moisturizing lotion over the area after removing hair
- Avoid tight clothing and wear breathable fabric
