Are tiny white bumps lining the inner lips of vagina normal?

I have had some problems with recurrent yeast/BV. I've been doing some self-examination to check the progess of the irritation. I notice tiny white (almost skin colored) bumps on both side near the top (near clitoris) and bottom (near vaginal opening) of my vulva. Kind of lining the outer edge of my inner lips.

They seem mildly irritated but not particularly more so than the rest of me (still getting over yeast). Is this a normal part of my anatomy? I would hate to make an unnecessary doctor's appt. if I'm freaking out for no reason.

Thanks!

I'm sorry... That was retarted of me.. ( I couldn't rephrase that once posted) .. .  .. It does sound irritating and scary though, regardless .. and like you should have a doctor take a look.

I would get a doctor to examine ... sounds also like it could be genital warts.

Hi,

If you have been previously diagnosed with a yeast infection then these white bumps may be significant. Yeast infections may be recurrent and need to be managed well. Get an initial consult with your gynecologist so that this will be assessed.
