Exam: A few ideas come to mind. Tiny bumps on the inside of the vagina are most commonly condylomas or reaction to hpv virus. But these don't typically have any white 'stuff' when squeezed. White stuff, as you say, leans more toward a diagnosis of sebaceous cyst. Bottom line, make an appointment with your gynecologist for an exam so you can be 100% certain what these are. Best of luck, .

How is pain from a fracture treated?

First and foremost: The fracture has to be immobilized by a cast or splint. That alone will make things a lot better. After that, there are pain medications to help deal with the early days following the injury. The pain will ease up considerably, long before the fracture has completely healed.

Be aware : Be aware of proper body mechanics by using your legs as your power source and keeping the load close to your body while avoiding any type of twisting or rotation as you lift. Know your limits especially with large, bulky objects or heavy ones.
