Incredibly itchy. I do get hairs on there which I remove but they’re back. It’s blistery and sooo itchy. Also some redness.

YABU.

Maybe folliculitis, it looks like a hair coming out of one, see a pharmacist or doctor for either antibiotics or fungal treatment.

If you ask mnhq to move this to general health you might get more responses

Absolutely agree @MissMoneyFairy spot on advice...

but everyone wants their "traffic" so we get all these posts in the wrong forum, every day.

Ingrown hair?

Just report your post and ask for it to be moved

I agree it might be folliculitis, show your pharmacist or if you go to a podiatrist/chiropodist ask their advice.
