Bumps in the vaginal area and burning.. Posted: 06-06-08 10:56am
So I'm 18 years old and Ive never had any
form of sex until my current boyfriend. We
havn't actually had sex yet but there is
the oral and umm.. finger satisfaction
lol. but anyways... i noticed a few days
ago that right below my actual vaginal
opening there was a sore spot like it had
been cut or some sort of rash or skin
exposed (like it had been rubbed raw or
something) and it burns when urine falls
on it when i urinate like to the point i
want to cry kind pain.. Then the next day
after i discovered this i noticed two
bumps by the area that are also very sore
if touched. And today i found two more
bumps further up. One was in a spot where
i could see and it looked like it had a
small hole opening and when i presses on
it puss came out. Im not sure if the other
ones are really puss filled because i can
not really see them... Ive already decided
I wasn't going to let anything happen as
far as any kind of pleasurable things down
there until this cleared up because i dont
want it to get worse by being touched or
rubbed. I was alittle worried about what
this could be.. could it be a yeast
infection of some sort or some kind of
bacterial infection and what should i do
about it other then go to a doctor? I just
dont really have the money to go to the
doctor right now because i am 18 and
living on my own so i do not have any
extra money what so ever and i do not have
insurance so the doctor is kinda out of
the question.. so please help me! Whats
should i do and any ideas what this could
be?!? Thank you!

I would suggest going to a planned
parenthood or something to get it checked
out. Call ahead and see what they would
charge you, they often times offer a
sliding fee type of thing, so you might
get it for almost nothing.
At first I thought it could just be
irritation from fingering (which can
happen really easily- use lubricant!!) but
if there are bumps, that usually indicates
something else... perhaps an std? Even if
your boyfriend doesn't know he has an STD,
he might. It doesn't sound like a yeast
infection or bacterial infection, those
don't usually have any sort of rash.

I agree, go to planned parenthood or a
similar clinic. Planned parenthood will
offer free insurance cards for
gynecological health for people your age
if you are a student or in a low income
job. All you have to do is show them your
birth certificate, SS card, and proof of
your income and/or proof of going to
school. Then you can get free check ups,
birth control, and other gynecological
needs.
I really would get it checked out if there
are bumps. I agree with Georgia; bumps
filled with puss aren't usually signs of a
yeast/bacterial infection.

A doctor would know for sure what it is
and be able to provide you medication (if
needed) to clear it up. Until then there
are some things you can do to releive the
pain. I have herpes and they can be
extremely painful.
Soak in a tub with 1/2-1 cup of baking
soda. The baking soda will ease the pain
and itcing and keep the rash/sores clean.
The baking soda may also speed up healing.
Its completely safe.
You can get STD's from oral sex. I know
you can get herpes this way, but Im not to
sure on what other STD;s can be orally
transmitted. Most people dont know they
have oral herpes and during oral sex they
can pass it on as genital herpes. I dont
mean to scare you. Only a doctor would
know if you have an STD. But try not to
touch or itch yourself. I know its hard,
but the baths could help with the
irritation. Best wishes...pm me anytime
