LUMP ON VAGINA

I posted yesterday that I had found a lump on my vaginal lip, and yesterday when I found it I had done some research and seen that people where popping it.. Today I put a hot water cloth on it, and a sort of puss thing started coming out, I then squeezed it and blood started coming out. Should i still be worried?

Hello,
It can be a boil but if you are sexually active then STD’s like herpes and syphilis should be ruled out. Apply warm compresses,Neosporin ointment and calamine lotion and avoid messing with it.You  can take anti-inflammatory pain killers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen.If the lumps persists then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

About a month ago I had a pea sized lump in my vagina lip, it was really painful to touch I couldn't possibly try to squeeze it. After about a week it went away. Now it's come back again it's really painful to touch and also has a red head looks like a little blister. Does anyone know what this is? Shall I go to the doctors this time?

I've been applying warm compresses, and it seems to be going away now, and it's definitely not as painful. Thanks very much for your help.
