Cysts after vestibulectomy?? HELP!!

Hi everyone,

I had my vestibulectomy 5 months ago. The good news is that pain wise, things have been pretty great. I do have a flare now and then, but not bad. About two months ago I noticed something really weird right inside my vagina. It looks like a small lump that is under the skin, and it kind of hurts. It's not an STD, because I have been tested for everything under the sun a million times and I'm not sexually active (haven't been for years thanks to VV). I do have an apt with a GYN, but not for another two months. For all you ladies who had vestibulectomy, did you have anything like this? Jen or Alana, have you had anything similar? I can't tell if it's a cyst or just scar tissue? It is all lumpy and bumpy and I can't tell what's what. It definitely feels like a lump under the skin. HELP!!! Thanks.

Go to a doctor I didn't have anything like that buy it didn't mean it's not normal

I do know that cysts are common after a vestibulectomy stop freaking out and go to a doctor even if they are currently can get them removed

That was supposed to say even if they are cysts you can get them removed. A cyst feels like a watery lump that moves under your skin. I have them thruout my entire body they really aren't that big of a deal. And most likely won't cause pain or turn cancerous if that is any concern to you (But if they are confirmed cysts and begin to hurt you can take vitamin e to cause them to not hurt or swell I take it for my boob cysts I have so many friggin problems its insane). And stop looking at it, you have no idea what you're looking it and could very well be your normal anatomy, you are going to make yourself insane. When I was 16 I found a lump in my right boob, I flipped out and was like OMG I HAVE CANCER! Turns out all it was was a cyst and I have 100 more in there too yay for me. Point is, just because there's something there doesn't mean that its dangerous or abnormal even. Until you go to a doctor and find out what's wrong with you turn off google and stop worrying so much!

That makes me feel better, thanks! Yeah, I feel like I never even know what the heck I'm looking at, like how do you know what is normal? It does hurt a little, and is moveable, so maybe it's a cyst. I'm seeing your Dr in July, I'm sure he can figure it out. Uck, I just wish it would be normal now!!
