Hi guys! So I've been sexually active for about a year now, and have only had sex with the same person (my boyfriend), he's clean, and i'm clean too.

last week we had sex and a few days later i started to experience pain down there, particularly near the opening, but didn't think much of it

it wasn't until yesterday that i noticed, while feeling down there, some bumps, around my labia majora and the inside too

the days have past and theyre not extremely uncomfortable but they're painful now. each side has a small cluster of like 4 little bumps - some on my labia majora and it goes down a lil past my opening

ive done a lot of research and i think they might be some kind of vulvar cyst but i dont even know, i was hoping some of my paranoia could be eased

i want to go to the doctor but i have an abusive mother who doesnt know ive had sex and helicopters everything. i wouldn't be able to go to the doctors without her finding out so i feel stuck
