I just wanted to thank Vanessa for the advice. After reading up on these forums and researching, I believe them to be sebaceous cysts. I was amazed at how it matched what I was going through. I just bathed a lot and cleaned and put on antibiotic cream and aired my self out. I am going to go back to my gynecologist to confirm this but I think it makes sense. It is just not a happy diagnosis since I think it might require surgery. Right now they are mostly gone and not bothering me. I do know that i dont have any unusal discharge but I do feel like a odor is there when it used to not be. I do work long hours and not a lot of air can get to my body so i wonder if that could have caused it. I have been putting on baby powder after bathing and before work so hopefully that will help too.
Its confusing but i hope it will all work out.
Hi,
Are there other associated symptoms like change in urinary frequency or change in the urine's character?
Is there any associated vaginal discharge?
This may be a case of folliculitis.You have mentioned that you have been shaving the area and this could have led to the condition.Nicks and cuts that occur as one scratches or shaves the area may cause infection of certain organisms.Commonly,these are organisms that reside normally in the skin.Once intact skin is disrupted they may invade the tissues and cause overt infection.
Folliculitis is contagious while acne is not.It is best to discuss this with your physician.You may need antibiotics to help control the infection.If this is acne, good genital hygiene and keeping the area dry will be able to help.
