    Vaginal lump

    I found a hard lump near my vagina. It moves free of my vaginal wall (I think) at some times its deeper than other times. I noticed it after the area was sore after starting to jog again. I have an apt but not for 2 weeks. I'm freaking out thinking its cancer.

    I'm pretty much 100% sure this is a cyst. It'll probably go away by itself eventually. It sounds nothing like any type of cancer.

    I hope so. From my google research it's kinda in the location of the bartholin gland but I think its deeper and not near the surface. Idk. I've clearly over thought every possibility lol

    Lump near vagina. Freaking out still.

    Ok ok. So this is my second post, but the lump is still there & apt got pushed to the 23rd. I actually thought it went away, but its definitely there. My HA Is in full swing.

    I'm praying it's just a cyst.
    It's near the suface but definitely internal, not on the skin.
    Can feel it when I press down on the area between my vagina and leg.
    I can move it, but cant be certain it's not attached to anything. Bigger than a pea but not as round as a grape. On right side.

    I'm so affraid to go to the drs.
    The only peace I have is that it's my only symptom. I've run through the cancer symptom checklist a lot.

    I've lost all rational thinking at this point 😢

    It’s probably an ingrown hair. It might even go away by the time you get to the doc. That’s a very common place for them.

    Thank you.
    It feels deeper than I'd assume an ingrown hair would feel. I dont know though. I've truly over analyzed it at this point.lol plus, the doctor had to reschedule my apt for next Thursday, so the anxiety continues 😬

    Sometimes you can get little cysts from ingrown hair a pocket of nastiness just stays in there till your body reabsorbs it or it bursts and oozes.

    My wife had the exact same thing. You most definitely have a bartholin cyst. Very common and not at all dangerous. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-...s/syc-20369976

    Thanks.

    Just wanted to update in case anyone runs across this with the same concerns.
    It was a Bartholins Cyst. Just as a few had said. Yay! No further treatment needed unless it gets bothersome or painful.
