Do you know what this is?

I've been waiting a month now for the last results for my STD check.  I was tested clean for everything except chlamydia. I took the treatment for that and the problem issues went away, though it gave me yeast infection. but I have these pimple like bumps near my vagina, and one or two right at the entrance. I tried to pop one once with some tweezers, and all it did was bleed a lot, I can't tell if it's an ingrown hair or not.
I'm waiting for my pap results, which includes hpv.

Does little red pimple-like bumps sound like hpv or warts? they aren't cauliflower like or flat. they are flesh colored. same as the skin around it, except the larger of the two near the entrance, it's a tad bit redder.

I recently found out that an ex of mine lied to me and has warts. we used condoms, but I read that condoms are only 70% effective against HPV. :-(

I have been looking these up for a while, but anything that sounds exactly like what I'm talking about, has been in a question from someone else who also had chlamydia and the treatment and what not, and these questions weren't answered.

You need to be seen way before Feb 6.  Is there a clinic or Planned Parenthood where you are?  Student health services?  You need to get this checked soon.

sorry, new to the forum. didn't know about the "to" section.

They didn't pop when I tried to, I just pinched it off and it bleed A LOT.  It's still there after 2 months, but smaller, and now there are the others that I noticed during treatment.

After I posted this, I took a macro picture of it, and there are like.. 13 of them. and 6 of them where hair doesn't grow (labium minus area), the others are on the outside area (labium majus.. as labeled on the vagina map I found. heh)

Also, now that I can look closer (with the picture) it looks like they have popped blood vessels on them that aren't on the surrounding skin, but so small that I couldn't see them in a mirror.

thank you for your response :)

Oh and I'd clean those tweezers, too.  If its a folliculitis thing, you might have a mild staph infection, and you don't want that near your eyes.

Warts aren't poppable, so I'd doubt its that.  It sounds like an ingrown hair, especially if you shave the area.

Have you let your doctor see them?

I hope you've gotten all your results now - a month is unacceptable.
