Genital wart ??

Hi
I am really worried right now

I have had a spot / bump on my left labia where the hair grows that has now been there for weeks probably even months , it seemed to appear after waxing, it has come up before in this area again after waxing but went away however this one is not going away

I have squeezed it a few times and puss/blood/liquid has came out on a few occasions but the spot has never actually gone flat . when I try and squeeze it now nothing comes out at all but the spot is not getting any flatter

I've tried EVERYTHING.. hot compress, ingrown soloution, even steriod cream.. it will sometimes seem flatter but it always gets bigger again And won't go , it is now starting to hurt a bit

I feel like it is possibly getting bigger.. and I am now wondering if this is possibly a genital wart ? However it seems like it is under the skin as opposed to on top of the skin which from what I've seen online warts are on top of the skin and bumpy.. this isn't bumpy It is smooth but is just isn't going away and has defo appeared in this area before

does anyone have a clue what this could be ?? I cannot see a hair in there or anything like that

Sounds more like a cyst. Have you been to the doctor? You might need antibiotics.

Not a wart, cyst. See your gp.

They are really common there

I haven't been the the GP was thinking sexual health clinic as I don't know feel
a bit embarrassed getting my bits out to a Gp as most of the time I see a man and also they aren't very good

I also go to the sexual health clinic for anything down there

Would GP be better for this ?

It's not a genital wart! Speaking as someone with unfortunate experience, as soon as you touch your single genital wart, three million more appear and cover your fouff and take months to get rid of!

@apostrophewoman sorry to hear you had that experience ! Do the warts appear on the areas with hair or is it mainly around the opening etc ? If you don't mind me asking

It's probably an ingrown hair from shaving. Eventually it will surface and you will be able to remove it.

Almost certainly an ingrown hair from waxing , but see GP for peace of mind!

They were all over my labia, not on hairy bits. They're very tiny and white and as soon as you touch one and then touch any other part of your fouff, they spread like wildfire. Obviously I was poking at my one wondering what it was, and the next day I was covered!
