Hello Doctor,
I've noticed the sudden appearance of five bumps on my lower vaginal opening, and they are red, slightly white, and seem to resemble scabs. Currently, they're causing a stinging sensation, particularly when touched, but oddly, there's no discomfort during urination. Can you help me understand what might be causing these symptoms and what I should do about it?
