I had a white bump type of thing on the bottom part of my vagina. It stuck out a little. Before I saw it I was really itchy all over and my vagina was red. At first I thought that it was discharge hanging out of my vagina. I saw two Drs, the first one Saw the bump about a week after I noticed it. I explained my symptoms and he said that it was just a skin tag, it's kind of like a protective layer of skin from an injury probably from having sex with a minor yeast infection. He said that my vulva still looks pinkish red but it looks like I'm already starting to heal down there. Ok forward three weeks, the skin tag was still there but it looked like it was going away. At first I thought that it was getting bigger because this white coat covered it, but when I slightly scrapped off the white coat, the bump was actually getting smaller. This white coat extended beyond the bump so that's why I thought that it was growing. I saw the second Dr about three weeks after the first, this Dr flat out told me that it was genital warts, but she was surprised that I only had one because usually there are more than one. This dr saw it when it was almost gone. In fact three days later the skin tag disappeared. Who do I believe??!! Neither tested! But the second dr did a Pap smear and she. was positive that it was going to come back positive for HPV, but I never got a call. So I am assuming that my pap was normal.

I'm wondering where you found those doctors and did you check to see if either of them actually graduated from med school?
A white bump sounds more like a pimple. A skin tag doesn't usually "go away" and it looks nothing like what you described. It looks exactly like it sounds, a tag like thing made of skin. Many old people have them all around their necks if you want a reference. They can be removed by surgery or simply by tying them off with a piece of thread to strangle them.
What you mention sounds more like a pus filled pimple. They usually go away by themselves but can become infected so you need to watch for that.

You have no idea how much I wish that it was that. But see it's like a white rough spot under the white stuff. This is why the first dr thought that it was a protective skin tag. Well he called it a skin tag but he described it as a ripped area of skin that's healing. He told me that when the skin down there is rips, it's not a clean rip so it will look like that. Now the second dr is actually a nurse practitioner and she was convinced that it's a wart. But it was healing the whole time, and I think that the white cover was a protective coat or something. My thought is, if it is a wart, do warts develop a white coat like that? The coat diss appeared when the rough spot disappeared. The spot looks like a bump because of the coat, and because of it's location my skin scrunched together there.
