Allowing the hair to grow in order to cause the hair to come out straighter and then manually removing ingrown hairs with special tweezers. When tweezing, be sure to pull the hair out by the roots. Do not allow the hair to break below the skin surface.
Try a topical antibiotic cream with anesthetic for the pain. If that does not work, use the raw side of a potato peeling and tape it to the effected area. leave it on for 24hours and check it .starch it in the potato skin can help draw it out faster.
Make a paste (poultice) with clay and a few drops of eucalyptus oil to draw out the hair and disinfect the fluid that has accumulated to trap and contain the infection. Apply at night and cover with a sterilized band-aid. The next morning, gently wash off the clay. Do not scrub the bump and apply a small amount of eucalyptus oil to the bump and let air-dry.
After about three nightly clay applications, the tiny hair will emerge from the bump and some pus may be seen as it is drawn out of the hair follicle. If the bump does not respond to the treatment by the clay , then apply propolis liquid extract, or colloidal silver to the bump to aggressively drive down infection, which is causing the swelling.

As the others said, try a pair of tweezers, a sterilised needle (the ones with a magnifying glass on top are excellent) or you could try putting some magnesium sulphate paste on it (covering the area of course) and leaving it for a few hours, as this is supposed to draw things out! By the way, don't try this tip if the ingrowing hair is somewhere sensitive!

Where ever it is on you it is advisable to to put a warm (hot as it is still comfortable for you) flanel or cotton wool on it and keep it there for a few minutes. It softens the skin and opens up the tissue around the hair folical.
Pinch gently behind the problem area and the pressure will force the hair towards the surface.
By using a needle and gently taking off a small layer of skin covering the hair it should expose it enough to either get the needle underneath the hair an leaver it out or for you to apply tweezers to it.
Man strong beard shaven every day that frequently has this problem......good luck!

What i do is desinfect the zone. With lots of sanitary alchool. and then use a neadle. Burn it in the previous you employ it. It hurts like hell yet i stick till i'm getting that nasty hair out. After that alchool. And a bandage. clean it 2 or 3 days and you will do no longer even observe you had it. With the neadle. try the exterior first. to work out the place it could bypass in with out hurting. that's the main particular zone the tip of the hair is. and once you get carry of the hair to the exterior use tweezers.

Mix a small amount of soap and sugar together put it on a plaster and leave it on for a couple of days. It works a treat.
