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 Could Growing, Soft, Squishy Lumps Near The Clitoris Indicate?
I have two squishy lumps on my vaginal area. They are not on the labia. They are near the clit. Off to the side. Almost an inch away. They aren t attached to the skin. But sit under it. I can move the skin around it. One is the size of a pea. The other has grown. It used to be pea sized. Doctor said it was acyst. She refused to remove it. But it has doubled in size. I m not sure if she even felt it. Or just pretend to. It s soft. Not hard. Nowhere near the surface. No idea what to do. But it s ugly. And it s uncomfortable to be touched. And it s in a location it gets touched.
Your symptoms refers to cyst like bartholin's cyst. It is common in women.Generally treatment may not be required.
When the size increases,it may cause discomfort. Sitz bath which means sitting a tub and immersing the lower half of the body in water two to three times a day can reduce the symptoms.The cyst will also break in 2 or 3 days.
Pain killers can be taken to reduce discomfort.In large swellings,incision and drainage may be required. Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
