I have a small red bump on the right side of my vagina, there is no pus and it isn't crusting. How do you upload pics?

    Think you can only upload photos from the desktop version.

      Thanks. I see you in a lot of forums responding. Is there a way to send you a pic?

      I don't think photos can be sent via the site's private message function, not unless they are uploaded elsewhere and you can message the URL.

      I have just noticed a bump under the vagina lips, I believe just above the urethral opening and from the pics I seen it looks nothing like Herpes; although it looks different on everyone. It doesn't hurt at all, again no pus or crusting and it looks more like cysts from what other ppl have described.

      A cyst will feel like a hard, movable bump under the skin. If that's what you have, then it's not likely herpes, which erupts on the surface.

    You may want to have that inspected as it may also be a genital wart. Look at the pictures online and see if any match what you have. Also, does it itch?

      I have an appt on Thurs., it doesn't itch. Aren't genital warts in clusters like cauliflower? It doesn't look like that.
