General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
By the description you have give, the lump appears to be 'cellular angiofibroma'. It is a benign mesenchymal lesion which chiefly involves the vulval region.
Its treatment includes surgical 'excision'. The whole lump is removed under local anesthesia under aseptic conditions. The tissue needs to be sent for histo-pathology examination to confirm the diagnosis.
Kindly consult Gynecologist or Surgeon for its evaluation and its removal.
Hope the information provided is clear.
All the best.
