How To Get Rid Of Bump Above My Clitoris?

Hi, I m 18 years old and I ve had this bump that keeps coming back. It s right above my clitorus. Sometimes you can squeeze puss out of it, almost like a pimple, but I m worried that it might be a cyst since I ve had one before (but not in that area). Do you know what it would be?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
The most common reasons of the bump on the clitoris like you have can be-
1. Folliculitis -
It is due to an infected hair follicle.
Usually has pus inside and
Needs an antibiotic and anti inflammatory drug for treatment.
2. Sebaceous cyst-
Due to a blocked sebaceous gland.
The secretions collection inside cause pain.
Needs to be surgically removed if infected.
Other cause can be molluscum and bartholin's cyst

A detailed examination is a must for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Apply mupirocin ointment
Warm pad application
Take warm bath 2-3 times per day
Maintain proper pelvic hygiene
Wishing you good health.
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
