Vagina

[gemzielu]

i have this like lump on my vaginal lip, and its started to hurt and its grew a bit, its not hard, its soft, its normally skin colour but now its gone like a red colour. i have looked up on the net and its more of a chance to be a cyst than genetil warts, what do you think it will be? and im too scared to go the doctors is there any other way to it bein checked than a doctor?

contact your local well women clinic or family planning................in the phone book.

Maybe when you go back to the doctors with the other problem you posted about earlier you can het them to take a look at it? It's in the same region.

Don't be shy or afraid of the doctor they are there to halp and have seen it all before many times.

[spurslady]

oops please excuse my poor typo's, It was meant to say let them have a look, and help .

it may just be a spot or boil. Call your GP surgery and maybe ask to speak to a nurse rather than your GP. They can also help you with your other problem and take swabs for any infections.

You previously posted about vaginal discharge (and refused to take advice re the yoghurt) and you're now posting a seperate question about a "lump" on your vagina....AND you're stating you're worried about going to a doctor....this should be the least of your worries....just go and get it all sorted.

It'll be a big weight of your shoulders once you're professionally checked over.

And if i were you, i wouldnt go diognosing yourself via google searches, it'll make you go crazy!

Go to the GUM Clinic, they're better than your GP because they specialise in that area (and let me know if it's herpes coz I'm not wanting to pass it onto anybody :-(

[gemzielu]

herpes isnt what i have explained. at least i dont think it is.. im goin to the nurse and she does STD checks aswell so im goin to her for this problem and she will check me for any STD's anyway to see what it is.. i think anyway..if you think you have herpes go get checked now. herpes is with you for life .

[Skreecheeboy]

Aye, tell me about it! It's not life threatening though and I actually believe that my immune system has never been in such good shape because of it (which I completely doubt but I'm happy living in hope) symptoms include blisters and a tingly, burning, itchy sensation. The first bowt usually takes longest to go away but it's uncurable because it lies dormant in your spine until your immune system is run down and then you have another outbreak. Not pleasant but I'm getting used to the idea of being a symbiant being.

[gemzielu]

so u have a std? and have u been checked?

[Skreecheeboy]

Hi Gemzielu, that's correct. Got misdiagnosed to start with, said it was dermatitis but I persisted and they eventually managed to get a good swab and confirmed what I thought it was. Lucky it wasn't anything more sinister though! Good luck!

[gemzielu]

the nurse said its a skin tag..nothing to worry about at all..and im all clear from std's ..
