I have an ingrown hair going under my scar… I’m 6 months PP and it’s been feeling a bit more sore and slightly itchy the last couple weeks and I’ve just noticed now that there’s a hair growing from the top to underneath but under the scar. It looks deep so I don’t really want to dig it out and as it goes under the scar you can’t see it at all! Has anyone else experienced this and have any advice?!

Maybe try to do some warm washcloths on the area to help loosen it. And then you said it’s been a bit more sore maybe try to do some scar massages to help break up the scar tissue and help healing

Definitely don’t try and get it out yourself as it can be so dangerous. I would suggest speaking to a pharmacist or even 111 to get the advice on what’s best to do x
