I have had an issue for quite some time now, but I have never thought enough of it to go to a doctor. Every once in a while I get this small bump in my vagina lip area.. it's always the same in size(circular crater like shape) and it's always just one bump. It hurts at first, and gets filled with puss. The reason why I have never sought medical help is because it's only just one bump always in the same area and goes away quickly. and from what I have read, an outbreak of herpes normally involves many bumps. I have noticed that usually after I shave down there is when the bump re occurs, also during my menstrual cycle. This has been re occurring for a few years now which is why I don't think that it is herpes.. although I am not ruling out the possibility.. I'd like to get an opinion based on my description!
