Question 1

how long does a painful vagina boil last?

Accepted Answer

Viral infection pain: If you are certain it as boils than you have to be seen by gyn to rule out herpes besides trauma. Vaginitis seldom presents as boil. Except aforementioned possibility. No matter what you definitely need a gyn consultation. Take care.

Question 2

i got a boil on my vagina for 10 days now its very painful how long does boil last

Accepted Answer

Long time: As an infection is allowed to progress, there will be more redness, heat, pain, swelling, and eventually drainage.  You may more immediately have your problem taken care of by going to your pcp, having the area numbed, lance and drain the boil, and start on oral antibiotics.  You have suffered enough with conservative care -- it's probably time to go on to more definitive treatment.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

See your dotor: It is probably an infectin and could possibly be herpes.

Question 4

i would normally get a boil on my hips or buttocks now & again, but for the last few months i have been getting boils non stop on my hips & shockingly, even on my vagina as well now. they are truly painful & i honestly do not know why? please advise.

Accepted Answer

Resistant bacteria?: The antibiotic-resistant bacteria called MRSA is usually checked for when a person has a boil. The doctor can swab the pus and send it to the lab. Certain antibiotics are used for MRSA boils, and other things have to be done to try to get that bacteria out of the household. Boils can still be due to regular, nonresistant bacteria... so hope it is nonresistant.

Question 5

i hav recurring boils on vagina lips ..it is very painful nd recurring in 15 days or in month last three four years .. i m 25 never sexually active?

Accepted Answer

Recurrent boils: This condition could be hidradenitis and this is a condition where recuurent boils develop often in the groin area. It can be treated medically and/or surgically. You'll need to see a gynecologist and/or dermatologist.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Go see the MD: If it won't stop bleeding is a sign that it may not be a simple "boil" but something more of concern.

Question 7

i have anal discharge, non smelling white vaginal discharge, itchy vagina, boils on my thighs and anus. last test said e.coli. cipro, klovinal, dazel kit has been taken, last year, no change. possible cause? pelvic scan shows no abnormalities.

Accepted Answer

Proctitis? Yeast?: Yeast infection is possible, can be worsened by antibiotics like ciprofloxacin. Klovinal and Dalzel Kit are anti-yeast, but some yeasts may be resitant. Positive test for E. coli means nothing, normally present in everybody's intestines and anal area. Staph infection? STD testing done? Checked for ulcerative proctitiis and Crohn's dis? See infectious disease specialist or maybe proctologist.

HS: There is a strong possibility what you are describing is Hidradenitis suppurativa. For this you may need a long course of suppressive antibiotic cream. Please see your Gynecologist for an exact diagnosis and management.
