please someone help me..clitoris hair? bad pain..

[rachel007]

I've posted a million times about this..but I finally think I know what is wrong now...so now I just need to figure out how to fix it...
I have a doctor's appointment in late august, so until them I'm sorta screwed..but for the past few months I've had this sharp pain in my clitoris, that gets worse when I rub it or it rubs on clothes, etc...a few months ago I noticed a hair growing into the clit, like at the very top, under the hood. I'm 99 percent sure that is the cause of my distress..I'm sick of peopole saying you can't grow a hair there...you can..I've read a few  people on the internet who had the same problem as me, just less pain.
Today I took a warm bath and soaked in it, trying to help, but when I got out, I felt the hair sticking out even more, extremely painful to the touch. My theory is that the warm water helped the hair like pop out more, you know waht I  mean? like how they say if you want to pluck your eyebrows, you should take a hot bath first to open the pores and let the hair out more?
Well anyways, the pain is extreme, and I need an idea to get rid of it, I don't think I can pull it out, I definitely won't shave it, and I CAN"T GO TO THE DOCTOR YET....and I really don't want to pluck it..Eventually it will have to fall out on its own right? It used to be really short and its getting to be pretty long now so its obviously growing..If anyoene can help me I will be EXTREMELY thankful...I've been suffering for so long, please help.
If anyone has an idea I would love to hear it!

I just found this site because I am currently going through pain in my clitorus are. I have been dealing with pain for many years and I didn't know what it was. Sometimes the pain is so bad I can't walk and wipe myself because if that gets near it makes it hurt.  It's a sharp electric pain. I have cried so much over this. I can't even have sex with my husband. It's frustrating.  A gyno told me it was the nerves and that stress can cause this pain. She said take pain meds. That didn't work. It does go away eventually but it comes back. Especially when husband tries to play down there. I can't take this anymore. It's ruining my life. So I checked to see if I had hair under the hood of the clit and sure enough there's hairs coming out of it.  I tried to pluck them out but couldn't cause I kept getting that sharp pain. I'm going to have to have the husband do it but I'm so afraid of the pain. This has been very traumatizing for me

I just want to let you know that this does not happen because of shaving.  I am 25 years old and have never shaved down there not even once in my life, and I still get the hairs that seem to "grow" inside the clit.  It is the same for me as most women here are saying, they come out easily usually with no pain, and the first time I pulled it out with tweezers it was a little bunch of small fine hairs all the same length and very small and fine.  They could not have been hairs that just got stuck in there if they were all the same exact length, and they were way too fine to be hairs from that area.

I'm not an expert but I have some thoughts on what you wrote:
1) I had the same concern about what I will do when I grow too old to care for myself (to bend and see...) I'm 54 now and have noticed that my hair is finer and there is less hair under my arms and on my legs and pubic area. That happens naturally as you grow older....so it may be less of an issue as we grow older. It already seems like I've had to deal with removing the hairs less and less.
I was never pregnant so I can't answer that concern.
2) If you decide to have surgery make sure you use a surgeon who has performed that exact (or very similar) procedure many times. That way you'll have a better chance of successful results.
That could be expensive and/or geographically impossible if the surgeon is located too far from where you live.

I have had this since high school, I am 35 now. One day, in my high school health class, a health specialist visited as a guest speaker. I described my situation and she said that not many women have it but it does happen. She said it could possibly be removed with laser surgery. Since then, I have been scared to have a laser on me down there and I remove it carefully whenever it starts to cause any discomfort or pain. My big concern is if I were to become pregnant some day. How would I be able to see to remove it? Also, in my older years, what if there comes a times when I can not either. Is there anyone who has researched laser surgery or anything like it? There needs to be a solution to this situation we are all dealing with.

i too found a hair under the hood in in the hole where my clitoris is. i had SO MUCH sharp pain. i waited until the pain wasn't so sharp that i could at least pull the hood up without dying, then finally used tweezers to pull the hair out (it was surprisingly painless!). the pain went away IMMEDIATELY. i felt a little soreness from the hair poking my sensitive, irritated clitoris.. but no more pain!

i recently shaved down there, so i suspect that one of the short hairs somehow ended up under the hood the exact same thing happened to me sometime last year. i saw the hair and was too scared to pull it out that time. SO glad i did now!

Thanks for your post. It still shocks me how many people have this same problem!
I am not a doctor, but you should probably get checked out. I doubt it is a blister, I'm fairly sure the only blister you can get is herpes but, I assume you are a virgin based on how you said you can't have it. Don't worry if that is the case. But you should see what is going on there and get advice as to how to care for it. It's probably just from the trauma. The vaginal skin is sensitive and susceptible to tears, irritation, etc. goodluck!!!
