Are STD's, Related With Bumps On Vaginal Wall?
Hi, I was wondering if I had an STD. I've been with my boyfriend for 7 months now and got him tested for stds which came back negative ( blood and urine). Now I'm not exactly sure if this is enough for concern but I have this painless bump on the interior wall of my vagina. It seems to blend in my skin too but I can feel it. I was drinking at my college about 2 1/2 months ago and afraid that I might have done something that I could regret. I was there for 2 hrs with a bunch of friends and I asked my friend if I did anything embarassing or bad and she said all I did was talk more and was funny and more outgoing, thats it. I honestly do not remember doing anything inappropriate. When I started dating my boyfriend, I was also a virgin so it couldn't be from something previous. I agreed with my boyfriend to get tested for stds right after he got his tests to ensure him I had nothing, so I got a urine test, testing for chylamidia and gonnerhea ( which came back negative). But I can't help wondering if I have something? am I worrying too much or should I be concerned? I booked a blood test which is in 2 weeks but can someone help me out till then so I don't go crazy? Also I've noticed a white bump in the back of my throat and then 3 weeks later I have a cold/dry throat. Could this also be symptoms of something? Please help! thank you.

Hello. Thank you for writing to us healthcaremagic
I would like to rule out a possibility of an enlarged bartholin glands.
The bartholin glands are located on each side of the vaginal opening and secrete fluid that lubricate the vagina.
Sometimes the openings of these glands become obstructed, causing fluid to back up into the gland. The result is a painless lump, which may come and go.
At times, the fluid within the cyst may become infected, resulting in pus surrounded by inflamed tissue (abscess).
Treatment is either draining them Or marsupialization.
I suggest you to visit a specialist for a confirmatory diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
Regards
