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.
Hi Doctor. I was examining myself and I felt a little bump on the lower left of my clitoris. When I looked at it it seemed pretty normal compared to the other one but it kind of seemed like a pimple . Could it just be a pimple ? Because previously I found a bump on the right side of the inside wall of my vagina and it went away in a matter of two days
Some infections such as herpes and syphilis can cause lumps. Genital herpes is an infection of your vulva and vagina and surrounding area of skin. Genital herpes is usually passed on by skin-to-skin contact with someone who is already infected with the virus. Treatment is usually with painkillers and antifungal medication which stops the herpes infection from multiplying. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection which usually starts with a painless ulcer on your vulva. Although it is an uncommon infection, the number of cases in the UK has increased over recent years.
