Posted on Sat, 8 Aug 2020

Question: Hello,

I%E2%80%99ve noticed one bump on my labia. I%E2%80%99m curious to what it might be. I did use XXXXXXX (and felt some burning on my lower private parts) as well shave in the past two weeks. I%E2%80%99m wondering if it could be a pimple, ingrown hair, or something else.

Hi,
Welcome to Ask a Doctor. I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns.
Is the bump painful? Is there any discharge from the bump? It probably is hair follicle infection.
If it is not painful it probably is healed hair follicle infection. If you can send me the image of the bump, I can answer your concerns better.

Best wishes.

Hi,
Welcome back.
It looks like healed hair follicle inflammation. It must have happened with the shaving you did two weeks ago.

It does not appear like a wart. Don't worry.

I do not know your age. But do get HPV vaccination done, if you have not had one.
Best wishes.
