Pimple Below Belly Button, Painful. Ingrown Hair?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could get an ingrown hair with pubic hair. I got a pimple like thing growing under my belly button and it hurts as much as a pimple and it has a white head to it. Is it ingrown pubic hair or could it be anything else? I am a 19 year old girl and I am only intimate with my boyfriend, I don't think it could be an STD.

hi,
probably it could be ingrowing hair, as that is common site among girls. also, it gets confused with pimple. specially if you are shaving that area, and having curly hair, and also getting waxing done in the area.

take an antibiotic orally, apply steroid cream, retinoid cream

wishing you good health
