Suggest Treatment For Tiny Red Bump On Vaginal Opening

Hi I noticed a tiny single red bump on my inner "lips", it had slight itchiness but now it's gone. It's close to the vaginal opening. I always have "teaspoons" of clear or white vaginal discharge, it's not an every day thing. It's usually when I'm doing a lot of walking when I'm at work or lifting.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.The red bump you see on inner labia is most likely bacterial infection or bartholinitis.Application of hot towel on it will give you relief.You can apply betadine ointment locally also.I usually advise antibiotics like clindamycin if infection is moderate to severe or if no improvement after local measures.These usually occurs due to change in vaginal flora or PH.You can use gels which maintain PH and normal flora or intimate wash for this.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
Thanks.
