Raised, Painful Bumps In The Vaginal Area Between The Pelvis And Leg. Suggestions?
Hello, I have a few hard, elevated lumps under my skin near my vaginal area. Usually appearing on the very top of my inner thigh or in the crease between my pelvis and my leg. They can be painful and sometimes red if bothered. Sometimes pop and sometimes they just go away, I don t think I ve got an std as my partner does not have them

Hi dear its not an std but is simple folliculitis. Pelvic area is rich in sebaceous glands and these glands get blocked and get infected. I would advice u to shave off the hair in that area. But do when there are no new lesions. Also u can use an antibiotic oint like mupirocine. Thank u
