An ingrown hair bump on the vagina, medically known as pseudofolliculitis barbae, is a common skin condition that occurs when a hair shaft curls back into the skin and creates a raised, painful bump. This can occur after shaving, waxing, or other hair removal methods that result in a sharp, blunt-tipped end to the hair.
Ingrown hair bumps on the vagina can be unsightly and uncomfortable, and they can lead to further skin irritation and infection if they are not treated. In some cases, they can also become infected and lead to a more serious skin condition such as an abscess.
