Suggest Treatment For Lump On Vagina
Hi. I have a lump deep under the skin on my labia majora. It is about nickel sized. I just noticed it this morning and it didn t hurt until I felt it. It is hard and movable and sore. It was colorless and now is slightly red because I was touching it to inspect what it was. It seems to be getting a bit more swollen. I do not have unprotected sex and I am extremely clean. However, I recently shaved that area and am extremely prone to razor burn. There are no other signs of typical razor burn in that area though. Not sure what to do. It s outside of my vagina. Only on the right lip of the labia majora. Please help!

Hi,
It seems that you might be having ingrown hair follicle infection due to shaving.
Another possibility of having Bartholin gland cyst.
Consult Gynaec and get examined.
If infection is there, with one course of antibiotic medicine for 3-5 days will cure your problem.
Ok and take care.
