Hard, Painful Bump On The Vaginal Lip With Oozing Pus, Blood And Clear Fluid On Squeezing. Herpes?
I had a hard bump on the left lip of my vagina . I figured it was an ingrown hair , so I squeezed it... first came a white puss, then blood , and now if I squeeze it, just clear fluid comes out. It s pretty painful, and now it kind of looks like an open sore, and I m not sure if that s because I popped it, or if it s because it s something else... Does this sound like it could be herpes?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
I dont think its Herpes as the first time you squeezed it, white pus would not have come out. I think it was a boil that you squeezed. I would suggest that you apply neosporin powder and soframycin ointment. Also use warm compresses to help the fluid drain. Keep the area dry and clean. Avoid touching the area.
Hope this helps
Regards
