Wart?

Wart?

Hi, I have been getting brazilian waxes done for about a year. I do get ingrown hairs a lot but usually they come out and they heal and maybe leave a mark, thats it. I have on that seems to stay raised and not hair has come out of it that I can remember. anyway, I have picked it, squeezed it, you name it no hair. The little bump that looks pretty much like a pimple remains. I have let it heal and tried not to mess with it and its is pretty much just the color of my skin and it is like part of a hair follicle becuase I hair does grow out of part of it. I had it looked at by my gyno and she says its just an ingrown hair. Well, where is it? could it have remained inside so long? will the scar  looking bump go away?  I asked her to look closely to make sure it wasnt a wart and she said it is prob an ingrown hair that is in there somewhere. It doesnt really look warty, just more like a scar. it is smooth and it is a bump but doesnt look like a growth.... what do you think? could it be a wart?

Hello,
Apart from wart it can be a small cyst or a sebaceous cyst. Sebaceous cyst is a closed sac or cyst that fills with a fatty white, semi-solid material called sebum produced by sebaceous glands of the epidermis. It is usually painless but can become painful if infected. Then antibiotics are needed. I suggest you to get it evaluated from a doctor sand get FNAC done.

I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and regards.
