Don't know if to see a doctor or not??

[Mondie]

I don't know whether to see my GP or not about this as it sounds really random and I don't want to look stupid.

My pubic mound hurts to touch, it feels bruised and it kind of aches a bit too. I am worried about PID or some other STD as somtimes I have bad smelling discharge (not all the time though) it happens only occassionally.

I suffer from IBS and recently had constipation and strained abit when going going to the loo, could I have pulled some pelvic muscle or somthing?

I hate going to the doctor as it stresses me out...so don't know what to do for the best...

You will worry and stress until you know for sure, so you do need to see a doctor.
I get this type of pain and I think it is a fibroid that was detected by chance when I had an ultrasound for something else.
You can also visit your nearest GUM clinic, the one near me is a walk-in service and very discreet and professional.
Be brave and see a medic.
