Hi Angela, sorry I'm a bit confused. Was your last colp 3 years ago? If it was recent you could have a bit of an infction. If it was 3 years ago then unlikely to be causing discomfort. You should always go to the docs to have symptoms like this checked out though. It's probably nothing but why risk it? Whether it is an infection or abnormal cells again the sooner they can be treated the better. Xxx
