A member asked:

I have a ingrown hair and the bump popped. some white stuff came out of it. some blood came out. what to do to it.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Folliculitis: An ingrown hair will cause local inflammation and infection at the hair follicle base. This condition is called folliculitis. A raised, red, tender pustule develops with usual spontaneous expression of purulent material as you described. Warm compresses and good hygiene advised. It can be related to your razor blade and shaving techniques. Seek medical advice for persistent problems.
