I have this happen to me on occasion....(female)
Take a hot compress, and put it on there for oh, 10-15 minutes,or sit in a hot tub. Sometimes that will make it pop out.
If not, after soaking in the hot water or compress, try and tweez or shave it.

Answer 2

God people write a lot of crap in these answers. I thought the idea was to answer a question if you actually KNEW the answer!

Ahem..Now then.. Provided you do actually have an ingrowing pubic hair..

You will need to shave arond the localised area, just enough so you can see where you're working. Then if you prod around with a clean (preferably unused!) needle you should be able to point the hair in the right direction. Once you have a clear shot at the hair remove it (without breaking it) with some tweezers. Make sure you get it right from the root. You may cut yourself and see blood but no fear. You may wish to use an antiseptic before and after to clean the area. The pain will be minimal and it should heal nicely. I new hair may pop through a few weeks later.

Answer 3

Ugh - that bites.

You have a couple of options.

You can leave it alone until it gets zit like, then pop it and pry the hair up... not so fun, and ugly as well.

The other option I've used when I was young... you take a sharp object and dig the tip of the hair free. Its painful at first, but it works, and the hair should grow normally from there.

If you are willing to deal with more bleeding, you can do a deep shave of the area - essentially peeling off the layer of skin covering the hair, and hope it changes directions.

Oh - and I'm assuming you're shaving - its uncommon to extremely rare to get ingrown hairs if you're not shaving...

Anyway - worst case, you just let it go... eventually the body will eject it, or reabsorb it...

Answer 5

Take a long hot bath, may use epsom salts in the water for inflammation. Gross as it sounds, it's similar to a pimple. The hot water will help bring the infection up. Don't kill yourself trying to pop it if it's too painful. It may take a day or two. If you can see the hair, sterilize a tweezers with alcohol and remove it. If it's that bad, as in a good-sized area of infection, you can go to your doc and have it lanced, but that's all they'll do. The hot water really helps, and you should be able to pop it.

Answer 6

Go to the drug store and buy some ichthamol. Put the ichthamol on the affected spot & cover with a band aid. Repeat until the problem is resolved. Good luck.

Answer 7

Do you mean you mean you have an ingrown pubic hair? If so, it is called folliculitis. And, it is quite painful. After it swells quite a bit, it should drain. THen the pain will be much less. You do not need to see a Dr. as this should resolve on its own. Unless, you feel it may be something else.

Answer 8

Go and get a clean sewing needle and gently break the suface of the skin over the ingrown hair, then get the needle under the hair and lift it out.

Answer 9

You should rub it with ice, and then use a warm, damp compress to exfoliate around it. Try (it may hurt!) to pull it out with a pair of tweezers. If it gets very red or infected, use neosporin (but no bandaid!) Change clean, dry underwear frequently.

Answer 10

Diabolicle folicle we like to call em!!

Seriously though, i'd get the doc to check it out - you don't want to be in agony over the new year when everywheres shut including the pharmacy.
