Pimple down there............

I had a minor itch last night after playing ball. I thought nothing about it, just the fact I had an itch. Then this morning in the shower I washed (with anitbacterial soap, as always... everyday) and when I got out I noticed while drying off I still had an itch. I took the mirror and looked and on my inner lip there was a white pimple looked bump. Being the squeezer I am, I squeeze just a little a puss mixed with blood came out. But not more itching unless touched. I looked a few minutes later and it had bleed a small amount. I just checked (some 4 1/2 hours later) and the bump is still there and its sore and a little red, but no puss or oozing. Should I call my ob/gyn or wait till tomorrow?

TIA!

I'd wait til tomorrow and see how it feels. It could've just been an actual "pimple" or clogged duct. I can tell you that its not Herpes so dont' worry about that.. they are really sore and more of a blister type.. You wouldn't dare squeeze one.. believe me I know. If you still itch tomorrow or have any soreness, then I'd call.

That's my 2 cents ;)

Welcome!


It sounds like just a pimple to me.

Thanks for both of your responses. I think I will wait. I figured we had pores all over, its just weird to get a "pimple" there. It was definately not a blister, but a real pimple looking bump. Just like you'd get on your forehead! Weird! THANKS!

Okay, your right. It's definately a pimple! I still just can't believe it!!! Anyways, last night, I checked it again and it had a little white head on it. So I squeezed (I know, don't do that, but I just couldn't help it!). Then about an hour later, I checked again and more white head. So I squeezed. This time more stuff came out along with some more solid stuff ---- just like a zit on your face. Now, because of that digging, I'm a little tender in that area, but the bump is quite a bit smaller today and its back to itching a little (which probably means its already beginning to heal!) Its just crazy!

Thanks for letting me talk about it. H doesn't understand and probably thinks his wife is some weird fruit cake!!
