I will try to be as clear on this, so as to prevent confusion. At the end of my last period, I noticed a small bump on the outer lip of my right labia. I thought it to be an allergic reaction to the pad I was wearing (a new brand), and so changed to a tampon as soon as I could. When I went to the restroom, I saw that the one bump had multiplied into a few in a patch near the original one. I still thought this was an allergic reaction, and so left them alone for a few days. The bumps were slightly itchy (like a hive would be), but no more issues besides that. I called my doctor to make an appointment, but the closest was in a month. It has been three weeks and the bumps are still there. They do not hurt, but itch occasionally. I an sexually active and have been with the same partner for over nine months, I had a complete exam six months ago and came back clean. Should I try to go to Planned Parenthood or some other STD clinic, or wait for my exam? And does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

I went in to the Dr today because I was so scared. It turns out to be follicutis. Just posting the answer in case anyone else has these symptoms and is terrified it is something else.
