Lump near pubic bone

I am 20 years old and I have a lump on the right side of my vagina. It is near my pubic bone, near the hairline. You can't see it but you can feel it when you apply pressure and move in circular motion. It is about the size of a marble and does cause some pain, but nothing drastic. There is also some swelling around it. But I am very worried and tried researching on it. I really need some advice right now. Please, help me.

kaki5,
I have the same issue (marble sized lump in the pelvic region that's only sore when I touch it and it's not visible). Did you figure out what it is or hopefully was? I'm worried because I don't have insurance right now.

Hey girls, if you ever have a lesson to learn, it's talking to mom. ESPECIALLY if it's about something health related. Okay so you're scared to speak up, you're to embarrassed to say anything, to show anyone. As they say there is no time like the present. PLEASE TRUST ME I guarantee your mom will be one hundred and ten percent supportive. She will help you through this and know exactly what to do! Chances are she or someone close to her has had this same experience and she will know what doctor to see or maybe even how to make it go away. A few embarrassing, awkward moments won't kill you, in fact they might even save your life! As for the "embarrassed to see a doctor" thing... Puh-lease... GUYS THAT'S WHAT DOCTORS ARE FOR! I promise any doctor would be happy to take a look see just to make sure everything Is going and growing smoothly! Also doctors are always calm about looking at your "private areas." They want to make you as comfortable as possible! So they won't make a big deal about it! In fact if you are really just to embarrassed to tell mom  (which you most deffinantly should) then just ask mom to schedule a regular check up appointment. When you are above the age of 14, the doctor asks your mom to step out of the room for about 3-4 minutes so she can examine that specific area. Even doctors know how awkward it can be sometimes. While your mom isn't in the room calmly mention to your doctor that you felt a small lump and would like her to check it out. She will be more than happy to, and she will be so appriciative you told her. Like I said before that's what doctors are here for! To keep you healthy! If you still feel embarrassed take a deep breath and just tell yourself the appointment will be over soon, it's most likely nothing, and by tomorrow the doctor will be checking out the same lump on a different patient and she will have forgotten all about you. I promise you are never alone when it comes to      health issues! I HOPE THIS HELPS

Reading these I am a little freaked out at times. A few weeks ago I felt some twinges on my lower left abdomen, didn't really think anything of it. Now about a week ago I noticed a small lump right at the top of my pubic region on the left hand side. It has scared the hell out of me. I keep pressing it and now it is quite painful. It does move around, feels a bit like a fatty lump, I've also noticed another one just above it too. I've booked an appointment with my GP, the next available one is June 10th (3 half weeks away)!!! Obviously I wanted a female doctor. I'm constantly worrying. I haven't told anyone, my sister is due a baby anyday so I don't want to worry my mum or anyone. I feel sick everyday cos I'm worrying so much, I've convinced myself it's cancer. As soon as I find out what it is I will let you all know. Wish me luck :/
