Walls of Virginia opening feel swollen
« on: June 18, 2024, 12:01:55 PM »

Hello Ladies

I’ve been feeling off for 2/3 days,
As said in the subject heading it feels like its slightly lumpy/swollen just right at the beginning of opening the Virginia
My stomach feel uncomfortable low down
And I can’t switch off from feeling/symptoms

Not a change of seeing gp
No discharge
No urgency to wee
No itching

I DO have
Discomfort in lower stomach area
Slightly swollen/lump one side of wall just inside Virginia  (maybe gland up ? )

Don’t know what to do to feel better ?
Any suggestion?

Anyone had similar?

Unless someone else will come along and say they have had similar or your symptoms don't clear up, you should see a GP. Book an appointment as soon as you can because of the long waiting period.

Or a Nurse Practitioner, which may be quicker?  Let us know how you get on.

Could be the start of an anterior prolapse. 

You need to be seen by a GP or womens health physio.

Just rang to see who’s on tomorrow
Don’t want a male

2 nurse practitioners !
Last time I went to one they diagnosed me with a prolapse ! Never even looked at me
I had appointment with a physiotherapist who checked me out internally and said No I don’t

So if it gets No worse my lady doctor I see is on on Thursday, so will be filling online form in at 8pm and hope they don’t  delegate to a nurse practitioner which is what they usual do

With your symptoms the nurse practitioner will have to refer to the GP, out of her/his remit I would expect.
Anyway, good luck and let us know how you get on.
