I've noticed this small lump, kind of pea-sized, under the skin on my right butt cheek, right where it connects with my thigh. It's pretty hard to the touch and really painful, especially when I sit. There's also some dark red-ish discoloration on the skin. Do you think this is anything serious or could it be a cyst or something else?

It sounds like you might have a painful bump, possibly an ingrown hair, cyst, or a localized infection. Its best to avoid pressing on it. Keep the area clean, and apply warm compresses to reduce pain and swelling. If the bump doesnt improve or worsens, consider seeing a doctor for a proper evaluation and treatment.

I accidentally used V Wash on my face but quickly washed it off after about 10 seconds. Should I be worried about any reactions or anything?
It is important to note that V Wash is a vaginal wash and is not intended for use on the face. If you have washed it off your face immediately after realizing the mistake, the risk of any significant harm is low. However, it is possible that it may have caused some irritation or dryness to your facial skin. To help soothe any potential irritation, you can apply a gentle moisturizer to your face. Additionally, if you experience any redness, itching, or discomfort that persists or worsens, it would be advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
