i have a small bump on the outside right of my vagina. it doesn't hurt and feels soft. what is it and should i be worried?

Question

I have a small bump on the my vagina that's under my skin and about the size of a pea, it doesn't hurt if I don't touch it. Its not read or has got any bigger. I also am wanting to get tested for anything, where should I go?

Answer 1

Bump: It is hard to say what the bump is with so little information, or not seeing it. I suggest going in to see the doctor b

Answer 2

Many reasons: You should get a pelvic exam. It could be due to an infection.

Answer 3

Several poss.: A break in the skin from a dermatitis, infection or trauma that was not recognized at event. A neuralgia, or irritation of a nerve, and an infection or irritation of an underlying gland like "vestibular adenitis". As you can see it may be complex. If it continues, see your gynecologist.

Answer 4

It depends: If this is a new problem, it is likely due to irritation in the vagina, commonly caused by yeast infection or contact dermatitis; rarely you could be allergic to the tampon. I would recommend you visit your gyn for an exam.

Answer 5

See below: It is painful only on insertion of tampon or also during sex? If both, you may have vaginisimus. See this site for information. It would be good idea to see your doctor keeping in mind that pelvic examination may be painful too. But you need to exclude inflammation or infection. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/pmh0002457/.

Answer 6

Probably Bartholin's: It's most likely a bartholin's cyst which is benign unless it gets infected. Check with your gyn to confirm with an exam and options are to leave it alone, drain it, or excise it. If infected, they can become very large and painful & need to be incised for both relief & treatment. Take care.

Answer 7

That : That is a concerning symptom. Yeast infections can cause white discharge but they usually are associated with severe itching. There are other infections that can cause white discharge such as trichomonas. It is important that you have this medically evaluated. If you develop pain, fever, or vomiting then please be seen as an emergency.

Answer 8

Sight conversion: "I could see but now I am blind" This sounds like the reverse of a religious conversion because in this virtual world i cannot see the "blobby something" inside your vagina and therefore cannot tell you if it is bad or not. You need to make an appointment with a GYN MD for evaluation, and he/she can "see" to answer your question.

Answer 9

That : That could be several different things. Sometimes, if a patient shaves, then a hair follicle can get infected, this is called folliculitis. Another possibility is called Bartholin's abscess, when the glands of the labia (the outer portion of the vagina) get infected. Other infections can also cause this such as staph. Please have a complete gynecological infection to get this checked. If you develop increased pain or fever then you must be seen as an emergency.

Answer 10

See a GYN MD: Any "bump" that isn't a normal part of your anatomy(genitals) should be a source of concern to you especially if it is uncomfortable. See a GYN MD for a "sight analysis".
