I noticed these little bumps today. Doesn't itch or hurt at all, they're just there.
I had the HPV vaccine when I was younger. I'm in a country where it's hard to get a proper gyno.
What could they be and what should I do?
I don’t know a lot about genital warts. But that does look like a regular wart that I have seen on peoples hands. Where is that located and do you have more or just the one?
It’s in the fold of the inner labia. I only see the one.
does it hurt when you poke or squeeze it? just wondering if it could be some sort of pimple. I would definitely keep an eye on it and if it gets bigger or you find more than one i would take immediate action. But it would be good to get to a doctor as soon as possible. I read online that there are a lot of different strains of HPV. Also a lot of the images i looked up about warts were different. So the warts can look totally different. If I was you I would get tested. Are you sexually active with the same person? or different people?
Thanks for taking the time to reply to me! It doesn’t hurt or itch at all, even if I poke and squeeze it.
I’m sexually active with the same person for a year and a half, and before that i wasn’t sexually active for like 6 months. I did have the HPV vaccine which I know wouldn’t cover ALL strains, but it does seem unlikely, I guess. I’ve been doing the same Googling and I can’t really tell anything for sure.
yes it sucks when you cant find a definite answer. And chances are the doctor will be wrong. i have found that half the time they dont have a clue either lol. i hope you are better soon.
it is possible that it could be a wart. as warts can take a long time to appear in some, but it could also be a blocked pore/ gland etc or maybe a mole? its hard to say, cos it doesnt look like the wart pics you find googling. but when you hear a description of how they can appear etc. i would suggest keeping an eye on it and getting it checked as soon as you can. there is apparently a test you can do at home to check, but idk how reliable that is. the vinegar test. apparently the skin changes to white if its a wart i think. all the best
