Skin irritation after barber visit
I got a cut in a well known Dublin barbers around a year ago. My neckline was trimmed with an open razor and I remember thinking it stung a bit, but at the time didn't think anything more of it.
A few weeks passed and I visited a different barber. The first thing they said was "Goodness, what happened to your neck?" Upon viewing it in the mirror the red blotches were immediately clear. I explained and they said that the razor was most likely the culprit. It sounds crazy, but I hadn't noticed the issue since the previous haircut (how many times do you look at the back of your neck in the mirror?)
Anyway, the end result is that a year later, the redness has subsided a little but is still very much there. Not so much irritating but very visible since my hair is fairly short at the back.
My questions are:-
1. What could have caused it - from memory the blade was taken from or dipped in a glass of fluid on the shelf?
2. What is the issue likely to be and is there a simple treatment, or is it a visit to the doc?
