I’m worried and I’m scared

Hello this post will be a little bit too much information but I hope someone is out there to help!!

 

hello I am a 17 year old non sexual active female who has over the past few years has around three lumps  in total around where my Bikini line is (more like my groin area) and they come and go after a few months and recently I've been quiet paranoid about this since this lump I have (on my groin area where my underwear goes) is starting to hurt. 
 

can someone please advise me of what to do? 

  • Hello ANON_ and welcome to the forum.

    I'm sorry that the lumps you've found are starting to hurt. If you're worried it would be best to get them checked out by your doctor as they will be able to tell you what they are and whether they're any cause for concern.

    Due to the pandemic, GPs are doing more appointments, in the first instance, on the phone instead of face to face. Understandably it can be difficult to remember everything you want to say and it can be difficult to remember everything they say, especially on the phone, but I hope these tips we have on our website will help you get the most out of your appointment.

    Kind regards,
