Hi there,
The presence of small painful cuts in your lower labia and bumps is indicative for infection. To determine if it is STD or other common infection, I'd ask:
- to have a photo of your current problems
- get tested for STDs
- get vaginal swab testing
- urine analysis
- blood work
Depending on the tests results, specific treatment is prescribed. For the moment, I advise to :
- keep a good hygiene of your genitalia
- avoid sexual intercourse
- apply betaine 10% on the cuts
Hope it helped! Wish fast recovery!
