Redish pus filled thing on vigina

Ok so i am 13 and had a pain between my legs (kinda beside my ...) and its starting to hurt to walk.its red, i guess swollen and pus filled (mainly white with a slight bit of yellow) it was painful but i thought nothing of it but today i tried to look and that is what i found. i was reading other peoples posts and wasnt sure what to think. its itchy only after i use the washroom then wipe. i have never had sex, and i do not shave down there. this is the first time this has happened. me and my mom arent that close so i do not know how to tell her to bring me to the doctor's. im worried about it and wondering if its just a pimple or somthing more serious. Thank you :)

Sweetheart... I think that you are going to have to tell your mom. I understand about the problems of a mother daughter relationship but when it comes to your heath you have to put that before your feelings. Just make sure that you tell her that you have not had sex. Hopefully that will make her feel more comfortable.

I've had these from time to time and they are very much like a pimple.  It helps to soak in a warm bath.  In my case, they always felt MUCH better after they popped because the pus came out and they were able to heal.

Yes, it will hurt a bit to pop, but the relief is almost instant.  It also helps to put some triple antibiotic ointment on it once it's popped to help healing.

If it doesn't pop, and the pain gets much worse, you may need to be seen.  I had one that didn't pop and wouldn't heal that needed to be opened at the doctor's.  (WORST case scenario.. mine always usually "pop")

It sounds like a boil. Its like a pimple, but very painful to pop. I have had them, though I don't recall it being itchy, just very sore.
Try googling images of boils, and it its the same thing, look up ways of getting rid of it.
Good luck!
