I have always has protected sex. I was raped when i was 17 but i knew the guy and knew he didnt have any std's. I had sex with one of my friends earlier this year and we used a condom of course. I have always tried to shave down there fast, but hey i admit big time i was foolish with lil water and a razor... i would always end up with severe red bumps. the next day it itched like crazy, but i knew that it was cause the hair was growing back.
The red bumps went away a few days later after i stoped scratching. Lately though he has been on a kick of asking me,"When was the last time u got checked for std's?" i have always used condoms.. and now he has me so freaked out i cant even sleep. I have always checked myself out and never saw any bumps, rashes etc. i do have the occasional chaif(rash) but it only comes when my pants rub too much on my legs. I also noticed that i had a purplish hard bump near my lip. It didnt hurt or anything. it was big but 3 days later it went away.. no puss, fluid, broken skin or pain. I learned from a friend it was a ingrown hair(which relieved me). What is tiny bit worrying me now is i have what looks like 2 small bumps(1 red 1 purplish, with a white head) on/near one of my lips. Doesnt hurt or anything.. but i do see hair trying to poke out of the red one(2 strands of hair trying to come out of 1 follicle)I am wondering if its more ingrown hairs? herpes(oh gawd plz no), or something else? I am trying my best to schedule a appt at a free clinic, only cause my mom is highly embarrassing. She wants to to into the gyno with me. I am 26 yrs old and thats a tiny bit embarrassing and there is somethings left not to be heard by her ears. PLZ i need your advice. i think my friend(soon to be ex when i find out the results) has me imagning that i do have something and i am stressing out enough i am making stuff appear. Please put my stressed out self to rest if u can...
Thank you all so much in advance
P.S. when my ex bf used to shave me, i never had ingrown hairs(but i guess cause he could see better and took his time).

ummm i know i ma going to the clinic... but does what i described sound like ingrown hairs or that sebatous cysts? ? ?
I get the same thing, and it's just ingrown hairs. Trust me!! I think you were right about your bf shaving and u wouldn't get any ingrowns coz he can see better. Just be careful down there!
I truly believe you have an ingrown hair that is collecting, blood and fluid, Put any dry agent to the are with a clean Q tip each time. Alcohol,, benzoyl peroxide wash as a mask., or peroxide.. Treat morning and night, covering the area with a band aid. After two days, lightly exfoliate the skin and use a lancet to open apply drying agent. Cover again with a band aid. This is a slow process, but it will not darken the skin, as often happens.
