cyst or bite on labia majora

by Janisue, Oct 29, 2008 12:46PM
About 4 weeks ago I noticed a rather large reddish lump on my labia majora.  I kind of itched but didn't really hurt.  At first I thought it was a spider bite or huge mosquito bite, but I always wear underpants with elastic unless they could bite through there.  I thought it could even be a  (god-forbid)  bed bug bite.  Then I put hydrocortisone on it and it went away in about two weeks.  Then this week I have two - one on each side.  One is bigger than the other, so I am putting cortisone on them again.  What in the world is this?

Hello,

Without examination,confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be contact dermatitis,allergies or boil. Allergic reaction can occur to strong soaps,detergents, chemicals, certain foods, plants, metals, cosmetics, even dust mites.

Pls wear cotton undergarments and do not use any cosmetic product on the bump.Also use non scented soaps and detergents.You can however apply cortisone creams if they do not go on their own.

If the symptoms persist then pls consult a dermatologist to rule out genital warts.
I hope that helps. Please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Warm regards
