Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I've noticed small bumps on the inner labia of my vagina. They don’t itch, burn, or hurt, but I’m not sure if this is normal or something I should be concerned about. Should I get them checked?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

Small bumps on the inner labia can have several causes, including harmless cysts, blocked glands, or natural variations in anatomy. However, they may also be a sign of an infection or a sexually transmitted infection (STI). A full medical evaluation, including a physical examination, blood tests, and possible swabs, is recommended to determine the exact cause. It is best to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment if needed.

 

Thanks
