Do I have Cervical/Vaginal Cancer/Tumor? |
I'm in my last teen years and realize that two large bumps on both sides of my labium(?or the external vaginal wall) must be treated. I have been in fear of going to the doctors, and talking to anyone about it for the past several years. At first when these bumps appeared, it hurt, but now, it doesn't hurt at all. The bumps grew, and then just stopped in size and is just there. How do I get rid of my fear and finally admit it to the doctor that I have a problem? --sincerely,scared out of my mind What you are describing is probably not cancer. It may be HPV (Human Papilloma Virus), or genital warts, or even abscessed infected hairs, or there are other possibilities. Getting this looked at will ease your mind, instead of carrying this fear around for so long. If you will feel better about it, it's perfectly okay to take someone along for moral support. It's okay to go alone too. If a doctor is too scary, find a nurse-practitioner instead, some people find them easier to talk to. As for the fear, just take deep breaths (we hold our breaths when we're afraid), keep breathing, and dial the phone. The same for the appointment - just keep breathing deeply and slowly. I wish you the best! it may be nothing that you are thinking about at all=go see the Dr and put your mind to rest Good Grief you get over your fear by knowing that those Doctor's, well most of them are there to help you. They went to school for that purpose. They do not think twice about seeing another naked women after seeing them all day long! They are in the baby bussiness. Get to the Doctor as soon as you can and do not wait any longer. This is your life. Put up a fight for it! Let's hope it's nothing at all. The more you put it off, the worseit can get if it is something? You know. Hope you go soon. I will pray for you. God Bless you! they've stopped growing and are not painful. could be just cysts. have the doc check them to be sure. you'll feel better once you do. You shouldnt be embrassed and you should go and get it check out. It might be something as simple as a ingrown hair that got infected ( as gross as it sounds it does happen) and has pus in it and needs to be drained;or a cyst. I So please go to the doctor and see whats wrong once you go you will be happy to know its nothing serious. I wish I could help you more but there isnt anyway anyone can tell you what it is over the computer. And if it would make you feel better go to a female doctor if thats whats causing the embrassement. It's always better to know the worst than to not know. AND it may be nothing. The unknown causes people more stress than bad news--at least you know the next step in order to take a plan of action if it is, in fact, bad news. If it hasn't gotten significantly worse, and it's been this long, it's probably nothing. Bite the bullet and go. If necessary, ask a close friend to go with you. Good luck! First of all dont be scare too much. Basically you have to be oriented on your anatomy. You might be experiencing a swollen bartholin's gland (bartholin's cyst). Bartholin's gland is usually located on the places that you described. Its main function is to lubricate the vagina during sexual intercourse. But for some reasons, the duct or openings were obstructed and same manifestation as yours may be encounter. Nothing much to worry it is not a STD, so dont be so shy to consult a doctor. |
