An ingrown hair is usually visible; either a small black dot, which is the hair, or a small deposit of puss (ewwwww, I hate that word!) That could also be a cyst, which is a deposit of things such as calcium. Cysts move around the body, and do not need to be removed unless they are halting the ability of a muscle or organ to work.Unfortunately, this could also be a tumor.Health Question & Answer
