Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Bumps In Between Legs, Around Vagina And Buttocks?
I ve been in very humid weather for the past month and recently over the past few days I have noticed some bumps around my under wear line in between my legs in the middle of my vagina and butt. It has started to discharge and I have always had a history or discharge. Should I be worried or is it just from my legs rubbing together and it being very hot?

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to fungal infection. If you send a picture of the bumps then it will be more helpful in identifying. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area and instead you can use warm water or saline. Applying ointments containing antifungal like miconazole will be helpful. This is available as over the counter in brands like daktarin. You can also use intimate wash regularly to normalize vaginal bacterial flora. If you have more unusual discharge from vagina then a pelvic examination by gynecologist and swab should be done to rule out infection or pelvic inflammatory condition. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
