So like I said, I thought it was a zit and the swelling would go down but it's not. It doesn't really hurt unless i put a little pressure on it, and then it just feels like pushing on a bruise. I asked my mom and she said it was probably an ingrown hair, or a boil or whatever. But I haven't shaved down there in months(and the hair had already grown back) so it's not an ingrown hair, and there wasn't any kind of sore so it wasn't a boil.
Should I wait a few days and see if it goes down or what?
Sounds a little too big to be an ingrown hair and if it was indeed an ingrown hair you would see a hair in there when you pop it. I would wait a few days and if it doesn't get better you may want to get it checked.
