Q: Bump Around My Vagina

I recently was taking a shower when I felt a bump around my vagina closer to the hair line then my labia, it doesn't hurt and it just feels hard unless you look hard you can see it but when you do it just looks like a pimple without the redness just like the surrounding skin with a tiny meium sized if not a little smaller bump i'm going to get checked again for std's even though my ex just got checked and came up clean but I would like to at leaset have peoples opinions just for my piece of mind or for info on possible outcomes at the gy. I've had it for two days and it seems to be getting smaller to just extra info. Any help appreciated thank-you

I have had those a time, or two. It just so happened I had one during the time of my yearly exam. My gynocologist told me it was just a swollen gland for whatever reason, and not to worry. Just don't poke at it or squeze it in any way. They usually just go away on their own within a week, or two. If it does not go away, though, and becomes very painful I would have it checked out just to be sure.

I have this lump

When I was washing my vagina I felt a lump on my left vagina lip it was my period it's still there after my period, it is smaller than a pea. I wash daily or every time I pee, I don't shave, I wonder what it is. is it a pimple or just a boil?

Vaginal bumps

I have the same really, its worrying.. I have a pea sized lump by my vagina it doesnt hurt atall, before it was a whitehead pimple and i squeezed it, and it was fine. now its came back and i can see a little bump with is almost flat on my vagina and underneath is the pea sized lump which i can move around a little. Im dead worried about a doctor. Oh FYI, the bump is just outside my vaginal lips. could it be a swollen gland! HELP!

i had it too...it even became red and painfull and made me feel like i needed to squeeze it....but it went away pretty quick after about a week and a half....it started tiny nd grew to about the size of a penny. not sure why but ive had it happen in the same place a few years ago its on my left lip also....but i was checked for std and everything and i was clean and clear. So this should go away soon if not in 2 weeks or so id go to a doctor...and note in two weeks it should be greatly improved u may still feel a tiny knot for a few more weeks till its completley gone
