[edit] How

How do you treat an ingrown hair with ibruprofen?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.8.116.87 (talk • contribs) 03:59, 17 August 2006.

I suspect that the ibuprofen is for pain and swelling. WhatamIdoing (talk) 06:27, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

I would like to add to the article that tight wristwatch bands may also cause ingrown hairs. The evidence is anecdotal (from personal experience with the problem). How should I do so? (searching the literature turned up no causal relationship between tight wristwatch bands and ingrown hairs).

You click the word 'edit' at the section that you want to change. A tight watch band is essentially a special case of tight clothing. WhatamIdoing (talk) 06:27, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
