Shaving rash!! I'd try a different shaving gel. Depending what razor you are using, it may be that causing it. I find that when i use cheap single-use razors, it gets very bad for me!
I also tend to use hair removal cream a few days before shaving, especially when i haven't shaved for a while. this usually stops me from getting shaing rash.
You said this has only happened recently, have you changed the shaving gel/ razor you were using before? Or maybe using a different shower gel? This might what's causing it.

It's shaving rash. You could try waxing or depilatory creams instead but some people (such as myself) find their skin still reacts the same way.
The only way I find to soothe it properly is to rest the skin from hair removal regularly. I find that the irritated skin is much more uncomfortable and unattractive than a bit of hair once in a while.

It might be because ur shaving or your allergic to some sort of soap or shaving gel you might be using, try hair removal cream instead of shaving, and also consult your doctor (i know embarassing right? but its better to be safe than sorry and they most probably know the cure without even looking at you)
Its just a guess but by what ur saying it seems its got something to do with the shaving
hope you get it sorted soon :) D.Gx
