Can major stress cause ingrown hair? never got ingrown hairs after shaving but for the last year ive been under such mental stress/worry and now i have the problem i can shave without getting ingrown hair. what can help and can stress cause this?

I cannot think of a way stress could cause ingrown hairs. But best to consult with a dermatologist and maybe have a hair biopsy to see what is going on,
