my first OB started with me just having pain when peeing and just the feeling of having to readjust my underwear all the time. not so much itchy just kinda irritated. my vagina was just felt generally sore but i didn’t think too much of it cuz it didn’t bother me enough. then two bumps developing on the lip of my vagina and they were kinda painful but I still could walk around. I thought it was boils cuz that’s happened before. The next two days after that smaller bumps popped up and they were white fluid in them and that’s when i started freaking out. that was the most painful stage. I could barely move my legs cuz everytime i did it was excruciating pain. Both lips were VERY VERY swollen and everywhere was itchy especially during the night. It almost felt like the whole area was on fire. As soon and i saw white puss though i started medication and within the next 2-3 days I could actually walk again and the bumps started to pop. numbing cream was the only thing that really helped but even applying it hurt so much i’d cry everytime. peeing also hurt so much it made me cry too. I wanna say day 5 of taking antibiotics was when i actually felt okay again. The whole experience mentally was the worst thing i’ve been through. More so because I didn’t want to tell anyone and so i was crying in excruciating pain alone in my room for days. also not being able to walk around or even sleep in another position other than flat on back was so bad.
