growth near vagina

I got this growth near the vagina and its the size of a pea. And when i pressed it. Its painful. But when I wanna squeeze it. It doesnt want to come out. Maybe it's not ripe?  Not sure. Its hard at the growth area and its pain is killing me. Is it a pass or what? I hope i wont have to go for an operation or something.  Im scare here. Help :(

You should follow up with your doctor to be sure. It could be an abscess or in grown hair. Just in case it is an infection, popping it could make it a lot worse. You may need antibiotic treatment or your doctor may need to drain it (sounds painful, but will feel a lot better when the pressure is relieved)
Good luck and hope you feel better.

Hello there,

Just finished reading your comments. You shouldn't try to burst this.
You don't know what this growth this. It may not be a pimple. Besides
bursting pimples anywhere on your body is not a good idea. This invites
infection especially in the area where your growth is. I would suggest
going to your family doctor and have your doctor give you their advice.
Your doctor may refer you to a gynecologist or dermatologist.
Good luck. Eve

it may be just an ingrown hair but see a gyno to be safe
