Ohhh, ST , those ingrown hairs are no fun!!! If it ever happens again--resist the urge to xacto as you could invite a larger infection!

Ingrown hairs often resolve themselves, much as any zit does. Just keep it clean and a hot washcloth on it to get it to burst.

I'm not a dr, but if stuff comes out of the wound it could be the oil/dried pus that was causing the blockage to begin with OR if round jelly like things come out--those are indeed fat cells.

Keep it clean, use Neosporin on it and see if it heals on it's own in a few days. But if you are worried, see a dr and explain your history. Maybe a dr can just look w/out touching or can give you some directions.

Wishing you healing!!!!
