Lump near clitoris on the left side

[beth756]

I recently noticed a lump on the left side of my clitoris (sp) it's painful to the touch I know it's not an STD or anything cause I just got tested about a month ago from the doctors and everything came in fine. But it only hurts when I touch it. I read several things about it might being a cyst which I have ovarian cysts already, is there a chance that it's another cyst? It's under the skin too, and about the size of two peas, I wouldn't know what size to really describe it as... yet it's not too big, and in an oval shape, at first I thought it might just be a vein, but why would it hurt so bad if I touched it? Please help, I'm nervous to find out. I'd like to go to a doctor but I'm out of my home state, and not sure how much it's gonna cost me. =(

thank you for your response =] but i know it isn't an ingrown hair... it's bigger then that it's a hard lump ya know... and very painful when pressure is applied... i'm thinking it might be a cyst... But i am definitely considering a doctors appointment... And I pray my insurance will cover it =] thank you so so much for your response

have you thought maybe it could be folliculitis and ingrown hair in that area. i sweat alot due to all the meds i take and i cant say for sure because of the location but i know i get small bumps in the area of the vaginal area and i always am at the beckon of the drs so they always say it could be a sweat pimple

one way i know i have a virus or something going wrong is when my groin area is swollen. the lymphatice system responds quickly when you have a bacterial or virus going on. if it makes it better just go to a dr close by and get checked out. i hope it helped a litte better.
