I noticed a big bump around my vagina (I shave down there) and it looked kind of like a mixture of a pimple and a boil so I started squeezing it and it popped just like a pimple would and got a lot smaller... Is it normal to have pimples down there or is it like an std...( but I've never had sex)?
Maybe it's the shaving that did that, that's what I think. I don't believe it's an STI.

Alright since you were shaving it might be a cyst. Cysts happen when areas get infected and a cysts can happen anywhere on your body. A cyst is like a zit but bigger. Cysts look like boils and are filled with puss and often show up in areas which have become infected. Usually people get a doctor to pop them since you are not suppose to do it yourself or they spread. I pop all mine myself though. Also if the cyst gets really bad you can get Antibiotics prescribed by the doctor. I had a cyst in my mouth after they did a filling which they believed was caused by the dental work. They just gave me medication for a few days. Also herpes I believe would be a like a cold sore not a cyst. Since cold sores are technically a form of mouth herpes. Though you cant get cold sores from sex its usually something you are born with. If you are truly concerned check with a doctor but it sounds like a cyst to me. Cysts are not a huge deal.
It's probably a shaving bump (I can't remember the official name for this "phenomenon". If it still is of great concern to you, it would probably be best to consult a professional.
Infected hair. Multi blade razors pull the skin taught and actually cut the hair beneath the surface which can lead to ingrown or infected hairs. Not pleasant and also the reason why you always shave downwards it helps avoid ingrown/infected hairs. Perfectly normal.
