Pump on private area

One day I got home and I discovered a large, swollen bump close to my clitoris. It hurt when I touched it. Then a couple of days later, pus started comming out of it, then blood..... It turned into a cut that hurt. Now it is in progress of healing but will not heal fully. Can anyone please tell me what it could be?

Check out "Skene's gland". It's close to the area you describe and those glands do get infected.

it might just be a sore. i get them too sometimes. it could just be from you gettin too hot or maybe your just sensitive to certain products that touch your private area. try to stay cool and try switching your laundry detergent and if that doesnt help talk to a doctor.
