    Question

    ok, i'm 15 and i tried to read all questions and couldn't find mine. so here it goes. down there i have these like bumps and they remind me of pimples. they pop, so when i pop them puss comes out (like a pimple) and then a little blood at the end (like a pimple). it scares me. i told my mom but she didnt say anything and i'm afraid to go to the doctor. what might this be?

    Answer

    You can get pimples any place you have skin, so maybe they are pimples, which means keep the area clean, do not pick them, and take warm baths if they bother you.
