What causes itchy bumps on the vulva?

In daily life, many female friends will have the symptom of some strange small bumps growing on their genitals. Generally, they are painless, itchy and there is no discomfort. Some will produce a tingling sensation, or itching, or odor. These problems make many sisters restless and give them headaches. Next, we will make some simple analysis and introduction on the issue of why the pimples and itchiness in the vulva occur.

Causes of pimples on the vulva:

1. Bad hygiene habits: Not paying attention to the local cleanliness of the vulva, long-term stimulation by sebum, sweat, menstrual blood, vaginal secretions, or immersion in urine and feces can cause pimples on the vulva.

2. Sanitary napkins during menstruation and non-breathable synthetic underwear at other times can induce itching due to long-term accumulation of moisture and heat in the local area.

3. Special infections: Candida vaginitis and Trichomonas vaginitis are the most common causes of vulvar itching.

4. Vulvar squamous cell hyperplasia: The main symptom is severe itching, accompanied by whitening of the vulvar skin.

5. Drug allergy or chemical irritation: Soap, condoms, benzalkonium bromide, etc. can cause contact or allergic dermatitis due to direct irritation or allergy, resulting in symptoms such as vulvar itching.

Note:

Keep the vulva clean and dry, especially during menstruation, pregnancy and postpartum period, wash the vulva and change underwear every day. Do not wear synthetic underwear or tight pants, wear cotton underwear. When taking a local sitz bath, pay attention to the solution concentration, temperature, time, and precautions. People with vulvar itching should cut their nails and wash their hands frequently, and avoid scratching their skin to prevent ulceration and infection, which may lead to secondary bacterial infection. Do not use irritating soaps, medicines, or water that is too cold or too hot to clean the vulva, so as not to disrupt the acid-base balance of the vagina.

Although genital diseases are relatively private issues, you should not avoid going to a regular hospital for examination and treatment because of this. If you miss the best time for treatment, the result will be counterproductive. The above is a brief introduction to the problem of what causes itchy and painful bumps on the vulva.
