How to get rid of razor bumps on thighs?

I have these red bumps on the inside of my thighs and is extremely annoying because i really want my skin to be smooth there. i tried stopping shaving for a few days, but that didn't work. i've tried using a lot of the sensitive skin razor cream and a new razor, but that doesn't work. and i've tried washing it with cold water before and after shaving, but the bumps are still there. and i've tried using lotion on it after getting out of the shower, but still nothing. :\

at this point, i'm just really annoyed.

thank you in advance (:

does anyone know what to do to get rid of them?

    The skin on your thighs (especially the inside of them) are SUPER sensitive. Alot of razor burn is due to dryness, so, like you said, use shaving cream for sensitive skin, or even try a different brand of shaving cream. I have a friend who is allergic to skintimate. Also moiturize your legs really well after you shave: I suggest lubriderm for sensitive skin. Also, alot of razor burn is caused from dull razors and so you are pressing down to hard- change your blade more often

    If the razor burn continues, then don't shave over it and try going to the dermatologist. You could have infected hair follicles.

    HOPE IT HELPS!

    Maybe they aren't from shaving. It could be any number of skin conditions. Since you already have tried so many things I would suggest going to a dermatologist and they will be able to help you get rid of them.

    I've had problems with little spots for years, turned out I have mild eczema. My doctor gave me a cream to use on them and they cleared right up.
