I have this painful bump on the inside of my labia.

Theres no abnormal coloring just feels like a bump underneath my skin. It's causing a bit of discomfort..aching and itching, swollen on one side. It's also very dry and burns a bit, then again, I keep trying to check it out and it didnt start burning until examining it.

I've only had sex with one person and that's the same for my boyfriend. I've heard you can get genital herpes other ways though so perhaps that's it? I've got an appointment in about a week but it's really starting to get to me.

Just wondering if anyone had any advice or just anything that might help me out..I guess theres no knowing for sure until I see a doctor but ya know..

Thanks to anyone who can help
