If you haven't been checked for sexually transmitted diseases (STD) now would be the time to do so. If you are sexually active you could be looking at some sort of STD (herpes is the most common in 1 in every 5 people have this disease). However, it could also just be an ingrown hair or something else simple. If you shave in that area that increases the possibility of getting ingrown hairs. However, remember, many people mistake herpes as ingrown hairs so it is best to go to your obgyn and get checked to be sure. I would also recommend to avoid touching the blister until your know what it is. If you do touch the area be sure to thouroughly wash your hands. Best wishes to you.

It actually sounds like a genital wart. 1 in 4 sexually active people have HPV. You could have the virus and not even know it, until now that you show symptoms. Go directly to a ob/gyn doctor and get tested for this std.
On the brighter side, it just could be an ingrown hair, especially if you are not sexually active.
I hope you take all of our opinions and see your doctor.
Good luck.

ok relax just take a tissue rub some alcohol on the tissue wipe the bump then squeeze it really hard as if it was a pimple. it might hurt but it's safe some pus and red or brown may shoot out just wipe it up. if you bleed out see a doctor or it may be a STD. like syphillis. M.D. Reese

honey I hate to tell you this, but it's possible that you may have herpes simplex 2, herpes simplex 1 would be a cold sore and # 2 is genital herpes.If you have never had a cold sore you are more susceptible to the genital type. take l-lysine found in your local drug store it can help to shorten an attack if that's what it is also avoid chocolate and nuts. eat tuna this also helps, also these are all amino acid as that can help or hinder in these situations, but above all else GO SEE YOUR DR!

Could be an ingrown hair or a herpes sore or a wart. Since you arnet sure and it has suddenly appeared I would suggest getting in to your Dr to get it examined and treated.

Go see a gynelcologist. They're more informative about cases like that.

It is probably a bartholin gland cyst. Type that in your search bar for information. It is very common, will probably come to a head and drain.

It sounds like it could be genital herpes or a cyst, either way you should have it checked just to be sure! Good luck!
