Red face Pimples in weird places!

TMI ALERT!!!!

About a week ago I noticed that I had a swollen, perfectly round lump on my inner labia minora. It is painful and has recently popped and started healing. I dont even know how it popped since I see no head like a pimple would have and there doesn't appear to be an open wound. I know it popped cause I saw what looked like pimple puss when I wiped. But now I have noticed that there are 2 more in the same area as the first one. The new ones are not as large but they also hurt to the touch. Naturally I was freaked out by this and went online searching for what it could be. I cannot figure it out! My skin has been breaking out like crazy lately and im wondering if it could be pimples. I have had pimples in just about every place imaginable including my labia majora, but I have never had one on the inside (minora). I also have not had a period since April, so I think that is making me break out more than usual and causing me to be very emotional. I'm pretty sure its not an STD. Doesn't look like a wart or a blister and I have been with the same man for a while now and he doesnt have any lumps or bumps that I have seen. No odd smell or anything out of the normal other then a painful bump. Has anyone experienced anything like this? If so, is there anything I can do for it? I'm kind of embarrassed and scared to go to the doctor, plus I have no insurance Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just an update foe anyone who may be experiencing this same problem......

I decided to stop being a baby and go to get myself checked out at the county health department. Turns out it is just pimples. As if getting pimples all over the rest of my body was not enough! The good news is that the doctor gave me an antibiotic to clear it up and also referred me to a place where I could go get some birth control and hopefully get my breakouts under control. I knew all I had to do was get it looked at so I would feel better......and I do feel much better Now all I have to do is wait 2 weeks for the rest of my results, which im pretty sure will turn out ok.

Glad to hear that you got it checked out and it wasn't more serious. I've had pimples in weird places before--but never there!

I get those all the time in my nether region (LOL). I've had them checked and every doc I've gone to says they're nothing, but irritation.

Bumps (pimples) down there can be so worrisome. Another suggestion would be to change the soap you wash your clothes with and change the body wash you use.

You are not alone...I have had them too! My doctor has said that they are pimples. They eventually went away on their own.
