Couple of persistent ingrowns, what to do?

• Couple of persistent ingrowns, what to do? by garra on 07 Apr, 2014 17:31
• Hi all
  
  As the title states I have a couple of persistent ingrown hairs on the back of my head that just won't go away.   
  
  My routine is that I shave my head with and against the grain every 2 days with a headblade triple.  I constantly run over these spots which start bleeding and scab up a little.
  
  I am getting married in about 3 weeks time and I am unsure what to do.  Was thinking of letting my hair grow a little bit (maybe a week) to see if it improves, however I am a bit weary of doing this as once I return to my usual every second day routine will I start to get more ingrowns elsewhere.
  
  Ahh what to do
  
  Any suggestions?

• You could try a broken aspirin and wet it and rub the paste over the spots....It should heal in a week. If not, you may have to get a dermatologist to get you some prescription medication. Good luck and congrats on the wedding!

• What about benzoyl peroxide ?

• Just a quick update, gave some benzoyl peroxide a try but it did nothing. Went to my doctor and they are actually warts so had them burnt off yesterday.
