Baby Having A Bump In The Vagina Which Is Getting Bigger. What Could It Be?
my baby has a little bump on her vagina what is it well how can i start this is my first time here and i have a question.she had a little bump on her virgina for over a month now and i think is getting bigger. the little bump is located on the upper place of the virgina. can someone please tell me what it might be????
A few more questions - how old is your baby. Is the bulge visible only when she cries/ strains or is it seen always. Does it have a bluish discoloration. I have an idea what it is, but would like the above questions answered. The possibilities are (i) Imperforate vagina with intact hymen - leads to hydrometrocolpos which can have this bulge in the vagina (ii) Ureterocele - ectopic opening of the ureter (pipe draining urine) which in some girls may be placed abnormally in the vaginal wall especially in the wall closer to the front than the back.
Both these are very easily diagnosed with ultrasound scans and easily treated as well. Do get back with the answers. Thanks.
