Question 1

i have lump on outer vagina lip and painful sex.!?

Accepted Answer

Cyst: This could be a bartholeen cyst, should be removed.

Question 2

found a spot/lump on outer vagina, is purple/red, about half cm in width and isn't sore. should i be worried? scared it may be a tumour.

Accepted Answer

Tumor unlikely: What you described suggests that h lump is a Bartholin cyst. It forms due to blockage of a gland near the opening of the vagina. There is no urgency, unless the cyst gets infected and becomes painful. You can wait to have it checked out at your next visit to the doctor. You may consult this site for info in this topic:

Question 3

there is pea sized lump on outer vagina within pubic hair area, is purply red in colour and not sore with no redness surrounding it. should i be worri?

Accepted Answer

Possible Abscesses: It sounds like you may have some abscesses with or without cellulitis.  You may need antibiotics and possible drainage of the abscesses if they are fully formed.  In the meantime analgesia like paracetamol and ibuprofen will help but also running the area under hot water and soap as often as it is convenient should help.  You should let a doctor take a look at it.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

This : This could be an enlarged lymph node or an abscess. I hope you have had it examined/treated by now.

Question 6

i have a small pea size lump on the inside outer vagina lips, near the clit i would say. its painful to touch, looks kind of like a pimple, and appears to be moveable but im not for sure. what is this?

Accepted Answer

Could be abscess : The area where you are describing is located near glands that lubricate your vaginal area. Bartholins glands are pea sized and lubricate the vagina. They can become blocked and inflamed leading to abscess. Try warm baths to soak and pain relievers. If this is not working get into be examined to see if they need further care

Question 7

i have a small lump on inside of my outer vagina lips, next to the clit on the left side. it looks like a pimple, its painful to touch, and moves. what is this?

Accepted Answer

Cyst: This sounds like a cyst which may be infected. These are quite common for women. Treatment for now would be warm compresses to the area (wet washcloth with very warm water and hold on area) 3-5x/day for at least 10 min each time. If it is worsening or you have have a fever, please contact your doctor or do a Prime consult with video on HealthTap. Don't try to drain or squeeze pus out yourself.

Question 8

lump in my vagina iching

Accepted Answer

Any : Any vaginal abnormalities, especially a "lump" should be evaluated by a doctor. The itching is non-specific and could point to many things.
Please seek care.

Question 9

i have a painful lump on my vagina?

Accepted Answer

Need MD to see: 
Both the abdominal rash and vaginal lump have to be seen by a GYN MD to offer the best advice.

Question 10

i have a lump on the side of my vagina?

Accepted Answer

Simple vs serious: Our bodies always have things that grow and change. Skin, fat, muscle, lymph nodes,  bones, can change shape, get larger, more prominent due to many factors. The vast majority are not cancer but simply unusual growths like fatty tumors, cysts, skin tags, moles, etc.  Most cause no symptoms and can be watched.  If they cause symptoms or change colors, bleed, bruise or hurt, then see your doctor.
