<klaxon> grape sized lump... hurts to sit down...

[KatoPotato]

Wahhhh...

I've had this lump on my labia for many years now, hard but painless.

Since a few days ago - I blame spin class - it's got really big, red and painful. It's the size of a large grape and is mostly hard. I've had mag sulph paste on it, germolene, hot baths, tentative squeezes... nothing - It's hard to dress too, thanks to the location.

I've had similar before, hence my mag sulph knowledge, but this just doesnt seem to be coming to a head, paracetamol and ibuprofen are not touching the pain.

Any ideas???

Morning Kato just marking my place... But seriously hope you managed to sleep last night

Ouch. I wouldn't be able to leave it alone myself, but I think you should probably see the GP. If it looks like a bollock, would lancing count as neutering?

Waiting for update

Morning. Awful sleep akin to dreaming about that party game where you pass a balloon between your knees!

I got up a 6am for painkillers and an investigation. Big shiny and angry, still no head.

Got the drs at 2.50 which is going to be mortifying but next problem is phoning my boss... Wtf do I say?

Errrrrrm "problem with my bollock"?

Don't want him to give me a bollocking!

Female plumbing problems.

Told him it was a gym related hamstring, can't walk or drive which is true and will explain resultant limping/john Wayne in.

Hoping mil will give me a lift to the gp later, driving was the worst yesterday!

"Very painful skin infection"?

"gym related"

Yes, I still blame spin class! Gym/Gyn potato potata

I should call my lump Gym.

Ouch!

Whack it with the wooden spoon!

Glad you're going to the GP. As much as I love a good sporn thread, I would hate to see someone suffer more.

I feel for you. Fanjo problems are always awkward.

Get better soon, lumpy Gym!

P.S. this is why exercise is bad for you.

Very good point, candy -

Worse part is now sitting watching don't get done get dom because the remote is too far away

OMG Kato. Has he said 'conshoomers' about 25 million times? You need the remote.

'They left Danielle feeling like she'd bought a lemon - I'm taking this to the phones...

They aren't answering...

Ooh judgy programme next 'Saints and Scroungers'....

The not being able to sit or sleep is the worst bit about stuff going weird down there. When did you last inspect for a head?

Do NOT take random antibiotics that you have in the cupboard (why do you have them anyway? You should always finish the course so you shouldn't have any left over) different antibiotics are more effective for different infections so you should always see a doctor to get the right ones prescribed.

Sorry, antibiotic misuse makes me ranty. Hope the gp is helpful op.

brill. marking place.[wails] why don't I get any good spots?

Oh sorry- hope you have some relief soon, poor thing.

Little investigation before judgeypants show. Tiny head oozing teeny amount of clear fluid... I've covered just the head with a spot plaster to try and coax it a bit, pains eased a tad too.

It was left over penicillin from my tonsillitis last month and I've been suitably bollocked (pun intended) by mother and dh.

Oooh sounds promising if its coming to a head and pain is dulling. Fingers crossed for a nice big pop at the GPs later.....

Will the Gp have a go do you think? I went to out of hours a few years ago with a brute on my neck and he sent me home with anti bees!
