Re: Ingrown hair
Apply a warm, moist compress to the area for a few minutes to soften the skin.
The warm compress should have brought the hair to the surface--don't dig for the hair if you can't easily get at it. Don't pluck the hair out completely if you can avoid doing so; just make sure that the ingrown end is out of the skin. It may take a little time to coax the hair out: be patient, and do not cut the skin.

What she said^.
YOu can use a warm piece of cloth too. And once you see the tip of the hair emerging out, pluck it with tweezers.
Re: Ingrown hair
^ What they both said about the warm compress.. rub the wash-cloth in circular motion to release the hair follicle trapped underneath the skin.
Re: Ingrown hair
Is it trapped in a cyst?
Oh and also follow umesha's advice to avoid plucking it if you can. Just free it from the skin. If you pluck it, it's likely that it will ingrow again.
Re: Ingrown hair
Hey guys, thanks for all your help :) i think i released the trapped hair as it's stopped hurting. I've also applied witch hazel and tea tree antiseptic which i think has helped a lot as it relieves the pain! Ive also been taking ibruprofen before ive gone to sleep!
