A pimple on the labia majora

A pimple on the labia majora is a problem that many women have. This problem may be caused by many reasons, among which the more common ones are pseudo-condyloma acuminatum, vestibular gland cyst, genital warts or some vulvar inflammation. These diseases are very harmful to women. Next, I will introduce to you the common causes of pimples on the labia majora!

1. Pseudo-condyloma

This symptom is caused by general vaginal inflammation and excessive leucorrhea, and is called pseudo-condyloma. Pseudo-condyloma is a type of disease that presents as velvety or caviar-like protrusions on the inner side of the labia minora. These may be pink or slightly transparent and are of relatively uniform size. There are no subjective symptoms and no treatment is required.

2. Vestibular gland cyst

Small bumps on the vulva may be Bartholin's gland cysts. The exit of the Bartholin's gland is located on the inner side of the labia minora, making it easy for bacteria to invade and cause inflammation.

Generally, bacteria first invade the epithelium of the Bartholin's gland ducts, causing the mucosa to swell, or the uterine adhesions occur after the tissue at the opening of the duct is destroyed, causing the opening of the duct to be blocked, and the secretions cannot be discharged, thus forming a Bartholin's gland cyst. It is often unilateral and of varying sizes. It may also be an early manifestation of vulvar inflammation.

3. Genital warts

There are other possibilities for small bumps on the vulva: one is genital warts caused by human papillomavirus infection. This disease is mainly caused by unclean sexual life and is a sexually transmitted disease.

Currently in the clinical practice of the Department of Urology and Venereology, it is found that the symptoms of pimples on the female vulva are basically caused by infection with genital warts. Therefore, when women find pimples on their vulva, they should pay attention to it and seek timely diagnosis and treatment.

4. Vulvar inflammation

Another possible reason for small bumps on the vulva is vulvitis: this is caused by a large amount of leucorrhea irritating the skin in the labia area. In daily life, the vulva is easily contaminated with urine, feces, and leucorrhea, so that the vulva skin is often in a humid environment, which is suitable for bacterial growth.

At this time, if the vulvar skin is abraded, or if hygiene is not paid attention to, or the body's resistance is reduced, the hair follicles and surrounding tissues will be infected by staphylococci and other bacteria, which will cause local vulvitis.
