Question
Hello! I'm 16 and I am a sexually active lesbian. I've only slept with one partner. I have painful red bumps on my leg, near my vagina. I think it may be from shaving, but im not sure? Thanks!
Answer
We cannot diagnose bumps we cannot see - so all I can suggest is warm baths and seeing a doctor if they do not go away within a week. Sorry!
