this is a cut from shaving on my leg I got two or three days ago, this redness appeared today I believe and its warm to the touch. I had been scratch at this leg in my sleep but its already evening and I noticed this redness when I got home today in the afternoon. I dont believe it was there in the morning.

Nothing to worry about!
I get this every time I shave, it's just the hair follicle a little irritated, it will be gone in two days.....not infected, not even slightly infected, just annoyed.
Maybe the razor was too sharp, too old, you pressed too hard, etc etc - don't worry about it!

Yep nothing to worry about at all.

Personally I don't think women should shave! Grab yourself an epilator which pulls hairs out at the roots so they grow back slower and fine. Pays for itself after a few months and is totally safe :)
