Don't touch it. Use the anti-pimple Neutrogena cream on it twice a day. Don't poke it or rub it and after it disappears, moisturize it to heal the skin faster. Also if its been there for 3 weeks, you should consider going to the Gynaecologist because it could be a chronic abscess and that will just solidify into a permanent bump unless she removes it right now.

You can always go to the dermatologist and have them extract it. Its just an inflammed hair follicle. If you are too embarassed to visit the dermatologists office you can alway dip a needle in some alcohol and pluck it out or use some sharp needle nosed tweezers to gently dig for the ingrown hair and pull it out. Make sure you clense the area with alcohol and a little peroxide to rule out infection afterwards. If the hair is too deep wait awhile until you see the hair surface and then try the above. If your that concious of it you can always put a dab of concealer on it until you can extract it.

My gyno informed me that placing a warm towel and putting it on it will relieve it. Mine never stayed that long to try it though. Those things are so irritating! They come from ingrown hair...so I normally get a mirror, and look to see exactly where it's at...and pluck the hair. It only stings for a few seconds. It works though.

Go to walgreens and get some neutrogena on-the-spot acne cream. It works great. Start getting bikini waxes, or even brazilians, instead of shaving. And don't tell me it'll hurt too much either because look where shaving got you!. :-p

the only way it will be a scar is if you burst it or aggrevate it the best thing to do is let it bust on its on you may want to try some vitamin e, or a and d ointment, or vaseline on it while it is healing

well since it is in the bikini line, it gets irritated because of the bikini, so it will take a while before it goes.
try other types of panties, the one that will not land on your bikini line.

Try rubbing a half cut tomato (cut side) it works.
