dh has diagnosed i have a spot on my pissflaps??

[humptynumpty]

It is huge, well feels huge to me, like a large pea. Had to get him to look cos can't see over the bump to get a good look myself.

Wtf do I do? Wait to see if it goes away or go to doctor?
Am so
doctor; what seems to be the problem?
me: well doctor i have a spot on my pissflap....

Oh and (why oh why am I going on about this!) - fraid I wasn't particularly embarrassed about going to the doc. Just made sure it was one of the female ones at the surgery. Listen, you have a baby abroad, you get used to being examined in the lovely stirrups every time you see the ob-gynae....

Not that she was that much help. Checked I didn't have a cyst, assured me swelling would go down (it did. phew. otherwise I'd be on one of those 'Embarrassing Bodies' progs), advised always to use tampons.

Bellissma - that's interesting - could this be a new area for mumsnet competitiveness then? Who has the most sensitive labia?

'Knickers, you can wear knickers?'

'I have to have hand woven hammocks made from silk I've grown myself'

'Woven! I can't bear anything woven. My knickers have to be generated by thought power alone'

I wouldn't let someone who used such derogatory terms for my anatomy within a country mile of them!
Jeez...

At least he didn't call them beef curtains.

bobbie
never heard that one!!

Bobbie - glad you said it before I did lol

Well, someone had to...

Ladies lips he he

Can I just point out that it is a Bartholin's Cyst

and they hurt like buggery - I had to have one lanced by the GP!

christ weegie think it is shrinking of own accord, and will disappear, don't fancy getting it lanced???

Not pissflaps darling, Beef Curtains.

I'm wetting myself at bartholemew cyst

on the subject of awful names for labia
dss2'gf has just mentioned she doesn't care for
.....
wizards sleeve

urgh

My colleague recently proposed "bearded clam" as a name for female genitalia in a recent handover.We all cried with laughter.

If it tis not sore (well unless you are constantly fiddling with it - the lump I mean!) no redness or head to it (phnerr etc) It is most likely a sebacous cyst. Often described as feeling like a rice grain or bead/pea under the skin - depending on size.

Sometimes they will become sore and infected and pop out mostly wont and will go away. If very bothersome sometimes medcial sorts can be persuaded to remove but mostly prefer to leave.

Oh if they do pop open they excude weird hard chesse like stuff not runny pus boak

Yess.. I have had one of these spots on me fur burger..I put vaseline (to stop stinging) on it and it eventually goes away on its own..happens sometimes when I'm stressed..I have never really experienced the puss/mank/cheese stuff

Here we go ladies, a common labia problem apparently

Oh and i advise you not to google images for it, some seriously vomit inducing pics around...
