My vagina has been itching for several months now, anywhere from the pubic area to the vaginal opening. I noticed a few bumps on the inside of my lip, right where the barthlonian cyst can be upseted. They were itchy so I took a warm bath with some epsom salt and went to bed. I woke up to pain there and when I looked I saw one of the bumps had popped open and was now very sore to the touch and itches like crazy! None of my previous itching had causesed a sore. I'm beginning to panic because I started looking online and of course herpes is the first thing I found. It doesn't seem like herpes based on what I have seen, I have had these little bumps before and they have never ruptured or caused any pain. I'm wondering if it is herpes or if maybe it could be an irritated cyst? Please, any information or opinions would be helpfull!! I don't know how to attach a photo?

      I have one painful spot, and it itches. I have had some small white headed bumps on the inner part of my outer vaginal lip, that have itched but did not change for weeks. This sore spot only formed yesterday then I took the epsom salt bath I mentioned. It doesn't hurt for pee to touch it but it hurts when I wipe or touch it at all? I don't feel like the sore spot formed until I scratched too hard on the small lumps the other day

      Lord baby girl...,

      I went through this same exact thing ... Your skin doesn't directly peel .. It's differs for different people my skin peeled and I had Raw skin on me and it burned so so so bad when I peed because my pee was hitting the raw skin ...

      But before it started peeling I didn't have any pain while peeing either

      But I had a fishy odor / discharge and I knew something was wrong , most scariest thing I've ever had to deal with I really hope and pray that you don't have this , it's a virus that you will be stuck with for life i can say that .

      But you should definitely get it checked out there shouldn't be any type of odor down there .

      None of the pictures of herpes looked like the other ones ., and I've had an cyst before ., never had any type of discharge so I think it would be best for you to get a swab test ASAP .

      I'm going to a clinic Monday. I don't think it is herpes because I have had some of these white bumps for a few weeks now and none of the others have hurt or even opened like this one.I'm thinking and hoping that maybe I have a really had yeast infection or bv, both say they can cause small, white, sometimes itchy bumps near the vaginal opening which are where mine are? I'm wondering if I just scratched this one off and that is why it hurts?
