MedHelp Member's Question

unusual growth

by concernedalot, May 25, 2008 01:31PM

About 2 weeks..I noticed a tiny finger-like growth on my labia minora, and within a few days some more came about on the right labia. They are all tiny finger like growths, on occasion there is a slight itching, and there hasnt been any changes to the situation, they havent gone away nor have more come. Im studying abroad right now, and Its very difficult to find an english speaking doctor, so i was wondering if there was anyway to say what it might be..an std? or ive been looking on the web and something called vulvar vestibular papillae.? it kind of looks like that.

Hello,

It sounds suspicious for genital warts. Hopefully, you can get in to see a physician where communication won't be limited.

best regards,

Dr. Downing

Contact your embassy or your travel insurance company for a list of English-speaking doctors.
Best of luck.
