What do I do about bikini area bumps from waxing? I now have one that's under my skin & it's kind of big.

Question:

Answers:
My guess is either irritation of the skin (which can be caused by hot wax, or an allergy to the wax) or ingrown hairs (where the hairs have been pulled out and the next hair is finer so it can't break the skin). Try exfoliation and using a different wax and see how you go.

In the meantime, to reduce inflammation, apply ice to numb the area. Or a baby's teething gel or cream.

Other Answers:
There's a cream that you can get (I found it in the cosmetic area with hair removal stuff at Walmart) and it's specifically for your bikini area - might be called Bikini Zone. It prevents and fixes ingrown hairs, bumps and irritated skin from waxing and shaving. It worked great for me.

ewww..

go to the dr it could be very serious if you wait too long it can get worse

Not that serious, it happens to me, too but they come out later.

You better stop waxing and go to a specialist as the first thing tomorrow.
