I know health anxiety can make you imagine things and make things seem worse than they are but good grief, this takes the biscuit. I am very sore and itchy down below and have been for a year. Was told I have excema, took meds, didn't help. Have two weird lumps that I asked my mum to check and she too says there is something there. Have asked several doctors to check and each says there is NOTHING wrong. What worries me is they don't feel the lumps I am on about and one doc in particular was actually biting her lip trying hard not to laugh as she was doing her thing. Both lumps really are sore - I have tried now steroid creams, emollients, washing more, washing less, using feminine wipes, a hot facecloth, sitting in a hot bath, trying to squeeze it, taking ibuprofen, taking thrush medicine, swabs taken for every infection possible, it can't be an STI... I have a high sex drive and after I relieve myself it always hurts more, but when I told aforementioned doctor this she laughed and said "you would be producing moisture anyway so you wouldn;t be hurting yourself unless intentionally". she also said what I am feeling is normal anatomy. Normal anatomy but it is so sore. My mam is fed up, I mention it pretty much everyday just to get someone to listen. Yes I have HA but I don't lie, I don't imagine things. I can't help worrying I have cancer or something and noone has realised. I wish someone would listen. What can I do? :wacko: The doctor thinks there is a hormone imbalance, could this be the cause? I have similar issues under my arm but those spots I can squeeze and stuff comes out. and they normally go away as soon as they come, my hormones are all over the place right now though and everything seems to be wrong. I'm so fed up and angry and miserable and sore and frustrated! Have literally covered the area in "liquid parrafin" I was given - uncomfy much!!!
