Hard Lump Inside Vagina,frequent Urination,irriation. Vaginal Cancer?
Okay I m asking this question for my girlfriend, please help I m a little worried tht this could be something. Well recently my girlfriend (17) and I were intimate, and while my finger was inside her vagina I felt something that I guess was a sort of lump to the left (her left) of the opening of her cervix . It was hard and the best way I can describe it, it felt almost like rigid like if I rub my throat that kind of feeling and it was hard and I don t think it moved. She has also said that she has been urinating more frequently but she does drink alot of water, and she has also said that she feels irritated down there alot recently. I ve looked up some things and I came across vaginal cancer . I really hope and pray that she doesn t have that and i don t know how to get her rested for it because we couldn t tell her parents how we found it or that we ve had sex. Please help me!!

Hi
You need not worry as what you felt will be the part of cervix as it will be firm to hard in any girl who is yet to have a normal vaginal delivery. Sometimes what you felt may be the normal pelvic bone parts if your girl friend is very lean. So no need to panic.
the urinary irritation and vaginal irritation is because of vaginal infection because of handling. This can be treated with antibiotics and drinking lot of water and maintaining a local hygiene. All the best.

best thing is to meet any gynecologist and Doctor then do perspeculum and per vaginal examination give us clue of any suspected cancer disease, in case suspicious lesion biopsy has to be done for confirmation of malignancy.
