    brown discharge + white bump

    Background: virgin, always irregular period
    one night this week my boyfriend fingered me a little too much and it got sore, I told him and he stopped and I thought nothing of it but when I woke up the next morning I noticed some brown discharge but just a tiny bit and it stopped after I cleaned it

    Problem: now its 3 days after and theres a lot of brown discharge and a painful white bump (my mom says it might be an ingrown hair inside the vagina)
    I've also been feeling a little weak but that could just be my period coming
    I am putting vasoline on the bump but I know its for external use... :/

    Question: Should I be concerned about the white bump?
    what should I put on the bump to ease the pain and make it go away?

    MEN::: would you be grossed out if your girlfriend whos always clean told you the reason you couldn't go down there is because she has a problem (like a white sore that may be an ingrown hair)


    thanks to all who respond

    I've had the same problem before. It's possible it's an ingrown hair, you might want to try a warm compress a couple times a day or soak in a warm bath, it'll help draw it out. As for e brown discharge, sounds likes old blood, I get that that at the end of my period sometimes. If it doesn't clear up within a few days I'd make an appointment with your doctor. Your boyfriend could have scratched you, that might be what the discharge is from.

      Brown Discharge & White Bump

      Your mom could be right about an ingrown hair, or it could be that your boyfriend scratched you and it caused a little infection. I'd try a warm compress or bath for a few days and see if it helps. As for the brown discharge, that's happened to me a few times. It's most likely old blood or the beginning of your period. If it hasn't gone away in a few days and the bump is still there, I'd make an appointment with your doctor, couldn't hurt.

          UPDATE*
          its old blood and a herpes type 1 sore
          which is the same thing as a cold sore or canker sore but in the downstairs region which sucks cause it hurts and I've never had them before down there... but you can take stuff for them so I will.. bah..
