Women's genital lumps
I have a small tender lump on right of vagina in crease of where my knickers go. Discovered it about a week ago. Is it maybe a gland swelling or ingrown hair?
Hi,
Yes it could very well be a sebaceous cyst or an ingrown hair. Most of the time they do not require medical treatment and go away on their own, although rather slowly. I've had to have a few lanced before by a doctor and it was quick and painless. I've had no luck putting any types of products on them before and I think due to the delicateness of the area, a lot of products would actually make it worse. Good luck to you.
