Thank you for your concern and advice. I had this similar problem  a few months back and did schedule to see my gyn but she was not available and I was seen by a physcian asst who did not know what it was. I left feeling a bit foolish for having taken the 45 min drive and 1/2 day off work to get no answers. By the time I was able to schedule to see my doctor I was healed so there wasn't much I could tell her.

I have not been sexually active for quite some time so I am fairly certain it is not a std. I  certainly agree that this is my body trying to tell me something. Something is out of sync. I had this once before in my twenties and I have since found out that both my parents have had similar experiences.

Good news is that I have been able to find a remedy online that has helped tremendously coupled with my faith filled confessions. I took a tea bag and steeped it for just a minute squeezed out tea and gently placed it on the cyst which did prove to be quite uncomfortable at first. Then when it cooled I took my heating pad and
covered it over the tea bag and relief came. It has been oozing slowly but I am able to get around now. Since it's not in an area that a bandaid would work I have used cotton pads and that has worked well. Thanks again!

I am so sorry to hear you are in pain.  But, it is impossible to know what type of condition is causing this symptom without an exam by your doctor. I have had pimples in my inner labia that went away on theiir own and were not related to any other condition. My mom had a Bartholin's cyst that also caused pain and difficulty in walking.  Also, I have heard that many STD's and even tumors can cause this symptom.  So, rather than guess, please go see you gyn.  If you are in pain, it is your body's way of letting you know something is wrong.  Please don't worry about the cuase, but only in diagnosing what is wrong and finding a remedy.  Unfortunately, it is just impossible to guess online, but the majority of issues have a treatment.  Good luck to you!
