I've never posted on here before..so im a
bit nervous.
I am 19 years old and I have been with the
same guy for about 2 years now.
Unfortunately while I was away at school,
I got pretty drunk with my friends one
night and a lack of communication between
myself and them ended me up in a room
alone with an old high school boyfriend.
He claimed to me afterward that he had
been tested and was clean.
It has been over a month now and I have
developed two bumps on my vagina, they are
on the skin surrounding the vagina (not
actually on it) one bump is quite a bit
larger then the other the big one is about
pea sized and is pretty sore. the smaller
one is not sore or painful and looks to me
more like a zit or pimple it has a whitish
looking head.
the bigger bump was my concern it is flesh
colored not white, just a little red. I at
first thought it is possibly an ingrown
hair, so i soaked it for a while and then
i noticed a black hair sticking out of the
bump so I plucked it,of course that was a
bit painful but now about a half hour
later it does not feel as painful as
before and swelling seems to have gone
down. Was this just an ingrown hair and
have a fixed it?

I would go ahead and make an appointment
with your doctor, sweetie.
There is nothing more important than your
safety and the safety of your current
boyfriend.
It is best if you get tested regardless of
what you think the bumps may be.
I would just go ahead and get tested for
everything under the moon. This way, you
can be relieved knowing you are
squeaky-clean.

if there was a hair growing out of it I
would think its an ingrown hair. Do you
shave?
You can always get tested though just to
make sure.

Yes I do shave, thats why I believe it is
or was an ingrown hair.
I'm going to try to make an appointment
asap much to my dismay.
Thank you for the responses though! I
appreciate it.

they could very well be from shaving, but
only a doctor will know for sure. At least
with a doctor you will sure about
everything. Hang in there,I know the
waiting game can be torture!
