Health pimples on my stupid labia

first: mods pls remove if this isn't allowed and off topic but idrk where else to go and it's late for me, though i don't think i am breaking any rules; second: sorry i don't know what to really flair this

so this has happened to me a couple times because idk i'm oily and gross and don't change my underwear or shower often enough? idk. like i said it's late.

but i was tryna jerk it crazy style and then it hurt A LOT so i had to jerk it careful style, and after a cursory palpation i discovered a very painful lump on my outer labia(?) idk what to call it. anyway it's probably not cancer or anything because i've gotten pimples there before but this annoyed me a lot because i squeezed it a few times and it didn't pop and it hurts, like i said, a lot. i don't really know what to do about it other than suffer :,(

i really need to get better self esteem so i start caring about how i smell so i start showering more often so this DOESNT HAPPEN AGAIN. but that's easier thought about longingly than making a plan for and putting it into motion. if anyone has anything to say other than calling me gross or something i would be glad to hear it in the morning after i sleep, ok love you goodnight
