What Causes A Painful Bump With Discoloration On Vaginal Lips?
Hi.. I ve had this same bump on the outside lip part, of my vaginal area. I ve had it for a few weeks now.. but what concerns me is that it has been changing color--from red, to purple, to skin tone. And vise versa. The size has also been changing. It hurts to touch, sometimes it hurts to sit, like when it touches my leg. And when it was huge and red before, I tried to have sex with my boyfriend and it hurt so we decided to stop. I doubt its an STD because my boyfriend has only ever been with me, and same for me to. Unless theres another way to get it. We ve been together since we were 14.. He didn t even know what to do at first. And he s my best friend so I conpletely trust him.. Point being, I think its something more serious maybe.. A cyst? I m so nervous. But trying to be calm..
