Ingrown Hair
- A list of seven causes and eight effects
Causes
1. Skin suffering
from lack of moisture
2. Stiff beard
hair
3. Embedded oil
in the hair follicles
4. Build up of
dead skin cells in the pores and on the surface of the skin can cause ingrown
hairs - some are more prone to this than others due to genetics
5. Coarse curly
hair growing in a curved hair follicle
6. Improper shaving
technique with a blade such as too close a shave
7. Hair removal
methods such as shaving, waxing, tweezing, electrolysis, often irritate the
hair follicle. Dead cells can accumulate at the site of the irritation and
form papule which can also contain pus while the skin heals. While this process
continues any hair in the area can get trapped under the formation and is
prevented from exiting the skin properly. Ingrown hair is the result.
Effects
1. Constant tenderness
2. Trapped, ingrown
hairs cause inflamation which result in the body forming papule - a small,
raised, abnormality on the skin commonly known as a bump giving rise to the
term 'razor bumps'
3. The body can
also respond by producing a pustule - a blister on the skin containing pus
4. An infected
pustule can become ruptured resulting in bleeding
5. Itching
6. Tingling
7. Pain - mild
or severe
8. Hard, prominent,
irregular scar tissue in the skin in chronic cases
