please seek a doctor in person about this. Something involved with the shaving probably...also, about Sebaceous cysts...don't pop them if you have them. This is from wikipedia about Sebaceous cysts...
"Under no circumstances must one try to pop the cyst, as it can lead to infection of the surrounding tissue. The neck is a particularly dangerous region, due to the glands and blood vessels."
