Patient's question:
Medical Description: Recently, I accidentally noticed a piece of red, tongue-like flesh sticking out from the vaginal opening, slightly on the left side. It went back in but was still visible. In the past few days, I've been a bit tired, and it has re-emerged outside the door. When I crouch down, I can see it with a small mirror. I washed it with warm water and found that the tongue-like flesh is about two and a half finger joints long. The part connecting to it is shaped like a water bag, but the head is shaped like a tongue. The connection area seems to be symmetrically embedded like a shell. (The flesh I touched felt very smooth and elastic). The visible flesh divides the vagina into two layers. When I lift my legs to a certain height, it returns to the lower side of my waist, and sometimes it's not visible. I'm frustrated. My lower back hurts a lot, and there are no other symptoms. Additional: I have an retroverted uterus, and I've been having constipation for the past two months.Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, what you touched should be the cervix or the vaginal wall. If there are no abnormal conditions, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up. The thickness of the hymen and the size of the opening vary from person to person.Advice: It is recommended to relax, pay attention to personal hygiene, keep the external genitalia clean, maintain hygiene during menstruation, and avoid getting cold. Avoid eating raw, cold, spicy, or irritating foods.
Based on your situation, this could still be a possibility due to inflammation or infection.
Advice: For this condition, if you have not had sexual intercourse, you should still be a virgin. If you use your fingers, it is still possible to tear the hymen. This will not have any impact on future sexual life, so there is no need to worry excessively.
