Gross but wtf?

Whoever said cotton underwear makes your vag breathe and lets in air flow is a jerk. I keep getting a pimple like fluid filled disgusting bump on my labia. :-(

When I wear my normal microfiber-ish boyshorts I do NOT get this. Only with cotton underwear.

It HURTS and I feel diseased, even though I know it isn't a disease. I just feel like any issue down there is "dirty" even though I know this kind of thing happens. And it only happens in that one spot.

But wtf cotton, why cotton?! Is my 17/13 hybrid malfunctioning?

Sounds like an ingrown hair. Does the cotton rub more?

Is it like a super deep ingrown hair?

Or, you know, the herp. (joking bc I just got tested for the herp recently bc of something similar)

You may need antibiotics. A recurring boil on your vulva is commonly staph. Sorry Wash your underwear in the hottest water possible to make sure the bacteria is killed

Well how in the hell does that happen?!

Please note, I know nothing about staph.

I hope it's just an ingrown hair, because it only happens with cotton.

Absess, boil, or cyst. All need to be checked out by a doc for antibiotics or to be removed. Please don't pop it yourself.

It's like pea sized and has the same feeling of what a blister feels like.

I honestly popped the first one =( and it was all clear fluid. It came back and then I got smart and started wearing looser/boyshort underwear again and it didn't come back at all.

Now I've been wearing cotton underwear that is more, I don't know, vag hugging, and now it's back.

Try dabbing some Tea Tree Oil on it and see if this does anything. It's a natural antiseptic, and doesn't burn, but will keep it clean and work on drying it out. And you're not dirty!

Could be an allergy to the elastic/latex
