am fed up going to the gp with embarrassing questions and being told there's nothing wrong. it's just well, embarrassing. so is it really necessary to see gp about a few spots inside my vagina? never ever had them before a few months ago. one will appear, be a bit sore for a few days then disappear. maybe a month or so later another one will appear. can these just be normal spots like on your face or could it be something else? I really can't face another gp visit if it;s nothing.

tbh, i would definitely take these to the doctor if they are recurring.

I started getting these a few years ago and it totally freaked me.....and they HURT!!!!!

The nurse I seen told me it is like anywhere else on your body ...........spots can appear but because hot and moist down there some may be more prone to them than others..she reassured me it was not cause I was unclean . I just pop them and they do hurt but after a hot bath it is not too bad.

You have my sympathies but it is nothing to worry about. HTH

Sounds a bit like herpes actually. You'd be best to go to a GUM clinic on the first day it occurs as positive swabs can only be got in the first 24 hrs of the spot occuring as a rule.

I have had a few down there as well.
They tend to last a few days and are quite sore to touch. I just leave them and they just go or pop them in the bath when ready.. Yellowish pus shoots out, and then they are gone!

I went to the nurse when I first got one, and was scared. She told me it was really common, and not to worry.
