Red bumps

Grace, I already know you told me from my test results that I am negative for HSV-2, but I thought I could come back here and ask you another question about something that may or may not be related. It's so hard to find reliable answers on the internet and I know you are knowledgeable about "down there".


I checked my vaginal area and the skin under my pubic hair (I don't cut/shave/trim it, sorry the TMI) looks irritated. Like it looks like there may be red bumps or just irritation, I dont know.

The thing is, I was wearing really tight pants today. Is that what could cause that? It seems to be more irritated on one side.

hard to tell what is going on. if it's still there in the morning, only thing to do is to be seen and get it looked at. make sure they test for yeast and bacterial infections is you do go to be seen.

or I guess if there ARE bumps there, could that still be caused by wearing tight pants alot? I tend to do that.

and at some points it got hot in some rooms, so adding that with the tight pants and wearing them all day. I mean could this cause an irritation in the pubic area or is that just wishful thinking? :(
