Pimple/blackhead on leg
I have got 3-4 pimples/blackheads on my leg. They are inflamed, swollen, hard, red and very itchy. What should I do? What's the reason? I get these mostly after waxing or shaving. Is it because of that or hard water? They often leave marks also. Please recommend something so that it goes away and doesn't leave a mark.
