Lump on cervix

Hi all, first time poster. I've just arrived on holiday with family but really worrying about some bleeding after sex a couple of nights ago. I can feel a small lump on my cervix. Smear booked for day after I get back from hols - not much else I can do but wait. Had some brown discharge after sex last month but I think that was nearer my period so it didn't really register with me. My smear is a few months late because we moved house but have always been clear in the past. Have also been told I have cervical ectropion years ago when I was on the pill but can't remember if the nurse mentioned it at my last smear. What do you think? Polyp or something more sinister?

Don't worry, enjoy your holiday. Rest assured everything will be checked out at your smear when you get back. Says here it bleeds easier because the cells from the womb are on your cervix.

Had my smear on Monday - nurse said she could see 2 ectropion and made me bleed which has happened to me before.
Should have results in 10 days so hopefully all will be ok.

Thank you MsHarry - your reply and the link calmed me down and I managed to enjoy the holiday!

Will update with the results...
