Hello doctor,
I have bumps on the inside of my labia which are not blistering, itchy, or sore. I guess it is folliculitis. Please help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern. Probably you are suffering from folliculitis. The reason for it could be frequent shaving of the vaginal area. To be safer, talk to your partner about any STDs (sexually transmitted diseases) and have protected intercourse.
I hope this helps you.
Thank you.
Regards.

Patient's Query
Thank you doctor for the reply,
Is there any cream that I can use? It is on the smooth part which does not have hair or cannot be shaved. I am a little confused as to why it started. Please help.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern. They are harmless, which could be due to friction. They will go away on their own. I would suggest you not to apply anything, to keep the area dry, and wear clean cotton underwear.
I hope this helps you.
Thank you.
