Pea sized lump

 I am 16 and have noticed a lump under the skin on my private part it's all quite itchy but doesn't really hurt unless touched, I also expirienced some bleeding inbetween periods in my last cycle so I just wanted to know if it is linked, and/or anything to worry about, I get really bad health anxiety and can't stop thinking about it but I know googling symptoms isn't the way to go 

  • Hello Bellaellaella

    I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling worried about a lump that you've found. Do get in touch with your GP or speak to a parent/trusted adult who will be able to help you arrange an appointment to discuss your concerns. 

    It's also helpful if you can avoid searching online for answers. You're unlikely to find a diagnosis but you will find lots of information that will leave you feeling more anxious. 
    Best wishes,
