Any Dermatologists on the Forum, aka Skin Docs?

[DesertIguana]

Was thinking last night about the last INGROWN HAIR I pulled, five weeks, and skin is finally back to normal. I blew it pulling the Hair then cover wound with antibiotic ointment, but biggest mistake was bandage that was not hypoallergenic. Normal Bandage and with in 4 hours my face/cheek looked like it was worked with 80 Grit Sand-paper. I have allergies.

So if we got any Dermatologists here, do you know why we get INGROWN HAIRS or INGROWN BEARD HAIRS? Problem most of life, have had some copper that grew back into skin like 1/2" deep.

Also any way to preventINGROWNS?

Know my Dermotoligish is alway say Drink H2O for better skin. Lots of H20.

Ok, sorry folks, but despite the very clear warning here, we immediately got people giving medical advice.
Nothing personal to anyone, including the OP, but we can't have that here, so we're locking this one down.
