[Cay1234]

I noticed that I have a small lump like in the inside part of my leg and like right next to my vagina.(where my underwaer line would be) Its been there for a couple of months, I noticed it when it first came up. The first one disappeared after a couple of weeks but the second one has lasted a couple of months. I shave down there and wonder if I might have gotten them by a small cut or something. I don't know what it is. I tried to squeeze it, but nothing. I can grab with my fingers and feel in under the skin. It is about the size of an eraser on a pencil or a little smaller.
Please help.

Could it be an ingrown hair? Does it hurt? Is it tender touch? What colour is it? If you are unsure go see your doctor.

No I'm pretty sure it's not an ingrown hair. It doesn't hurt, doesn't itch, it's a bit purple though
And I'm only 16 and can't exactly tell my mother about it. That's why I'm on here
Thanks x

Since your 16, tell your mom you need to start going for your yearly gyn exam, if you haven't already that is. Could be just a compacted follicle, a cyst of some sort, even just a plain old pimple that won't come to the surface. Could also be something more serious, a boil, an infected gland, something. Get it checked!!
