I literally had this exact thing happen to me about a week ago yet the article claims there has only been 26 cases in over 60 years. I call bullshit. I think it happens all the time its just people notice it, pull the hair, and it never gets a case study done.
I have, in my life, probably had this happen in 20 different places other than my foot, my foot was only once. Every time its obviously a hair with a sharp end, and when i notice the hair i pull it and im fine.}
inb4 its not an ingrown hair or anything as it always happens in places where hairs dont grow like my finger tips (most common) or as was the case last week the bottom of my foot.
