If you use an epilator, instead of shaving, like the new epilady you will have less hair to deal with (and it does not hurt half as much as some people say it does) and so you will have less ingrown hair.  Especially after the first month or so of using it.  Waxing instead of shaving will also have the same effect.\n\nAlternatively, if that is not an option for you, wearing spandex shorts that are tight on your leg and prevent chafing of your leg when you exercise will help too.\n\nYou can get some stuff at a drug store called “Bikini Zone” that you put on after shaving that does help some...\n\nEventually, if you do nothing, the skin on your thigh will firm up and become more like the skin on the rest of your leg (but still be just as sensitive) and won’t develop ingrown hair as much.

try to rub the area when you wash- don't let skin form over the newly-growing hairs. rubbing briskly will help exfoliate that skin.

Do not use kerosene on your skin as suggested by someone else. Go to a beauty salon and get the hair waxed. This is what i do. It does hurt but its ok, and it gives the best results, the hair takes longer to grown back and you won't have so many problems. Don't shave it makes it very itchy and it grows back quickly and can cause ingrown hairs and infected hair follicles. Don't try to wax yourself it will all end up a disaster!

Do not cute your nails too short.  Let them grow a little.\nDo noPrevention\n\nTo help prevent an ingrown toenail:\n\nTrim your toenails straight across. Don't curve your nails to match the shape of the front of your toe. If you have your toenails done at a nail salon, be sure to tell your pedicurist to trim your nails straight across. If you have circulation problems in your feet from disorders such as diabetes or peripheral vascular disease, see a podiatrist regularly to have your nails professionally trimmed. \nKeep toenails at a moderate length. Trim toenails so that they're even with the tips of your toes. If you trim your toenails too short, the pressure from your shoes on your toes' tissue may direct your nails to grow into the tissue. \nWear shoes that fit properly. Shoes that place excessive pressure on your toes or pinch your toes may cause your nails to grow into surrounding tissue. If you have nerve impairment to your feet, you may not be able to sense if your shoes fit too tightly. Take care to buy and wear properly fitted shoes, preferably from a shoe store specializing in fitting shoes for people with foot problems. \nWear protective footwear. If your work puts you at risk of injuring your toes, buy footwear such as steel-toed shoes, which protect your toes. \n\n I've had to get an ingrown toenail removed before.  I used to bite my toenails and tear them off.  I've had to do my own getting rid of toenails too.  I don't get them anymore because I let them grow and then cut them, no more tearing.\nHope this helps.

Moisturizing/ treating them with a product called "Cuticle Eraser" from Creative Nail Design. Can be purchased at any respectable spa or salon.\n\nAlso go treat yourself to a proper manicure at a respectable spa, not one of those "chop shops".

Try this product called Tend Skin. Bikini Zone works ok too (and you can get it at Wal-Mart). For treating ones you have already, go to a health food store and get some cream with Tea Tree Oil in it. That stuff works miracles on cuts, zits, ingrowns, any skin thing. Just put a little on it every day.\n\nWhen you first notice you are getting an ingrown try and pull it up from under the skin with a pair of tweezers or a needle after you wipe it down with rubbing alcohol. You can also use a hot compress (a warm washcloth) on the ingrown a few times a day to help work it out.

They could be irritated ingrown hairs, depending on where they are at.  Also, if you don't wear underwear, and sweat a lot they could be pimples.  See a dermatologist.  May be embarrassing, but no more embarassing than having someone else see them.

If they are little bumps they could just be ingrown hairs

It sounds like you have "pseudo-folliculitis barbae". Basically, you have ingrown hairs caused by shaving. Unfortunately, there is not much of a treatment option out there. Some dermatologists are using new age lasers to treat but there is not a high success rate and it's very expensive. Some men try to alternate razors with electric shavers, but it doesn't really help too much. You may need to grow and maintain a beard. In the meantime, you can try doing an internet search. Just watch your pocket for quacks that claim to cure you. Insurance won't pay for these treatments...p

Shaving 101 \n\nIf you appreciate the always-ready convenience of shaving, there are a few things you can do to minimize the “bikini bump” syndrome that often accompanies this home hair-removal method. \n\nFirst, be sure to adequately wet the skin and the bikini hair. Since pubic hair is much more coarse than hair on other parts of the body, this saturating step is very important. Using a large amount of a moisturizing shaving cream, such as Aveeno Therapeutic Shaving Gel or Peter Thomas Roth 21st Century Shave Cream, helps soften the hair even more, making shaving easier. \n\nWhen you begin to shave, pull the skin tight with your non-shaving hand. Then shave in upward strokes. Make sure there is adequate shaving cream on the hair and skin before each stroke. Without this protection, you’re likely to get red and bumpy after you shave. \n\nSome experts recommend rubbing an ice cube over the shaved bikini area to reduce redness and discomfort. A nice application of a soothing after-shave product, such as California North After Shave Care can help make you more comfortable. And if those nasty bikini bumps do appear, try MD Formulations Glycare Acne Gel, which is great for sending them packing. \n\nRubbing alcohol-based shaving bump products have made a name for themselves but be careful. Alcohol can actually worsen the inflammation. And the active ingredient in most of these products is nothing more than aspirin. So consider taking a Tylenol or Advil before you shave to reduce the amount of inflammation that may arise. You´ll be able to skip the alcohol and still reap the benefits. \n\nAnother option to reduce skin inflammation: look to GHK Copper Peptides. Best known for their use in skin rejuvenation, these handy little molecules first made their presence known in the wound healing world. Try a dab of Neova After Shave Therapy after shaving and see if you don´t get some well deserved relief.

inner thighs:  leg lifts: stand with feet together, bend knee slightly and lift leg, then rotate toward other leg, like your right foot would be kinda in front of your left shin, if doing right leg lifts.  do 15 - 20  with each leg several times each day.  ALSO, lie on your side on the floor, lift the "top" leg up high slowly then lower slowly. repeat repeat repeat with each leg.\n*** lifitng leg away from the body - like in a jumping jack - works the outer thigh muscles\n\nstomach stay flat:  practice keeping those muscles pulled in!

I'd suggest getting it waxed.  It's longer lasting and provides better results.\n\nIf you must shave, shave with the grain and try using Coochie Cream or Bikini Zone to help reduce the irritation.

The best way to think of ingrowing hair is like it is trapped under the skin. The best way I have found to stop it is to exfoliate the skin. This should relly be done on a regular basis as the aim is to prevent them bofrore they develop. There are lots of exfoliators on the market, including ones specifically designed to stop ingrowing hair.
