Lots of small white bumps on vagina, itchy and sore to the touch. What is it? Please help
Posted , 21 users are following.
I had unprotected sex a day ago with a partner I've been exclusive with for a couple months now, I didn't wash or clean my vagina immediately after sex and only got to shower the next day. I have had some problems with irritation from shaving recently, but today I felt itchy down there, and my vaginal lips are sore to the touch and almost a little swollen. Please look closely at the attached pictures, there are all these small white bumps/dots on my vagina. Can someone please tell me what this could be? I'm very stressed out about it.
Thank you!

I do feel some itching and some light stinging/soreness. Doesn't worsen when I pee though. I was looking up what it could be online and at least from the pictures I saw this doesn't really look like herpes or genital warts? Or is there still a high possibility that this is what it is?

Yes, I also noticed what looks like a wound or peeled skin. I remember having some super light bleeding, just a streak of light red on some toilet paper when I was wiping after peeing last night right after sex. The itching and soreness/pain only began late today. Any idea what it might be? I'm a student and won't be able to see my gynecologist until later next week due to scheduling issues.

Yes, I can feel itching and some soreness/pain around my vagina. I've also been having some white creamy vaginal discharge. It doesn't hurt more to pee than it already does just sitting around, like a light stinging and itching

Thanks for the reply! I attached an image (I apologize for how graphic it is) that shows more clearly the white bumps, a lot of them near my vaginal opening and it seems like there are also some inside. It also shows the kind of white discharge I have. Does anyone have a better idea of whether if this could be herpes or just an yeast infection? I never had either before.
Super super worried :{ and again, my doctor's appointment isn't until next week and I'd really like to get some more information on the situation before then.

thanks so much! I googled symptoms for yeast infection and I think like you said I fit the symptoms pretty exactly, and my discharge does have a slight beer/bread-like odor so it's probably definitely yeast infection. It's just all the little white bumps made me think it was some sort of blisters or sores like herpes or genital warts. But you're right it's probably just from the overall irritation.
thx again

Couldn’t be herpes. Either fordye spot englarge due to the yeast infection or the yeast infection causing eveything which I am sure that’s what it is because the the discharge look like yeast , you fine girl I jsr get over the counter yeast cream until the doctors appointment so you don’t continue to irrate it and itch it

you may also have a Bv which is Bacterial Vaginitious. the doctors told me when they did a swab down below that is indeed what i had... they also said every female will get it once in there life. they should give u an antibiotic that u can take 2wice a day but u cant drink alcohol with this medicine either. Metronidazole 500mg thats what they gave me.. and it cleared up within 4 days. much better relieved
