What Is This?? - Women's Health Message Board

I really need some insight, because I can't get into the doctor for another two weeks, and I'm scared.
A month ago I was having pain in my upper area by the clitoris. I had a small lump that eventually looked white. Eventually it popped, and white and clear liqued came out. It went down in size. It's not as big, but I'm not sure if it is gone. I can't remember if everything looked the same before, but I can see veins clearly, and another white lump popped up near by. It's up towards the top - not near the vagina opening. I've also noticed pain running through out the area, especially after sex. The exact spot doesn't hurt really anymore, but the other pain does. What could this be?

Its kind of like a little pimple, only they don't call it that. I forgot what the name of the gland is that gets infected. Usually its nothing to worry about unless its very painful, then they can do some surgical procedure.

How does it get treated? Is it normal to have pain running through the area? It's like a scraping on the insides of the area.

I've had these before; one was really bad, I believe she called it a bartholomew cyst. I felt like a leper, just really gross. She said just keep the area clean, which is was I did. This was several years ago, no trouble since.

obvisously what ever it is: it seems to be speading.

Your situation sord of reminds me of a boil-like cyst that I had on my face 4 years ago.(yeah...it is different) but........whenever the pimple pop...there's these nasty....white w/ blood liquid would leak out......even though the present spot have heal...I have another one, right next to it...2 weeks later.

I had to have something injected on my face to stop the bacteria. Dermatologist said.....if I waited any longer....would have been scar for life.

The point is: have it treated as soon as you can.
