Discomfort 12 hours after shaving

Messages

Hi all,
After 30 years of shaving I've always had an issue of discomfort as my stubble grows back. Typically 12 hours post shaving.
Tends to be between my chin and throat, my skin becomes sore to touch especially if I touch it against the grain. There's no irritation to the skin. It's almost as if bending the hair follicles against the grain hurts. Once there's enough stubble to shave the discomfort passes.
Has anyone else experienced this?
 
Bumping an old thread, I get it when I shave ATG on my neck. I tend to describe this as 'shaving too close' and it's only ever applicable to my neck.
I've found in this case, using an exfoliating, abrasive face-wash on my neck tends to counteract most issue as it reduces the issue of in-growns.
