Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.

A swelling on the right side of mons pubis could be any of three general possibilities.

The first consideration is - lymph node. There is a cluster of lymph nodes in the groin which can become inflamed in response to some kind of infection. If you have any symptoms of infection in general including fever, pain with urination, or vaginal discharge this could trigger lymph node swelling.

A lot of causes can be ruled out by physical examination of the swelling.

The second possibility is that this could be a small infected sebaceous cyst. This is triggered by an ingrown hair which causes an infection and the infection progresses somewhat until pus accumulates under the skin. These can be quite painful and sometimes are treated with antibiotics or even a small procedure where the cyst is drained surgically.

The last possibility would be a hernia. These tend to be larger and are caused by a small weakness in the abdominal wall which allows for part of the bowels to push through creating a palpable lump.

To find out the exact cause, a clinical examination is a must.

You may get the initial physical examination, relevant tests and treatment done under care of 'Gynecologist'.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer them.

Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.

The swelling of labia can be due to infected bartholin's gland, sebaceous cyst, vulvovaginitis due to allergy or rough intercourse.

You can use an antibiotic ointment like bacitracin or neosporin with 1% hydrocortisone ointment for relief.

If there is pain or fever or vaginal discharge or the symptoms do not improve then you might need prescription antibiotics.

Hope my answer is helpful. Write back if you have further queries.

Wishing you a trouble free speedy recovery.
