Hi. I am 34 years old and been married for 9 and a half years. Mid January I started itching on the vulva area and tried to rule out a new washing powder so I rewashed all my underwear, and went back to the previous washing powder. Used sudocrem as a moisturiser but no I improvement. I have been put on thrush treatment cream and it's now been two weeks and no change. Only yesterday I noticed a small lump, and I googled the area and it seems it's on the labia majora. I am now extremely worried. It doesn't hurt when touched and is the size of a pea and red. If you were to look for it you wouldn't see it. I only noticed it when putting the cream on, and had trimmed yesterday so if I hadnt trimmed I honestly think I would never have noticed it, which is worrying so could have been there for a while.
I stupidly googled it and now my itching and this lump combined sounds like vulva cancer. I am so scared. The surgery have closed to weekend appointment requests due to the covid vaccination program pressures so I have to wait until tomorrow morning. I have no abnormal discharge and my smear last year came back negative. The skin that is itchy is not in the same area, it's further up but only slightly red and itchy mainly when I am hot. The lump is on my right labia majora parrallel with the clitorus so I'm not convinced it's a gland cyst. Anyone else had this experience before?
