Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am a 25-year-old female. About two months ago, I noticed pain in my clitoris area during my period. When I decided to check, I noticed it was present in the area underneath my clitoris. I think it is called labia minora, and it was swollen and pink. I have seen a doctor who told me it seemed to be a blocked gland that could have happened from my period or a hair getting stuck in that area. I had not shaved down there in months, so the hairs were kind of long. He told me to soak the area with hot water, which I did, then it immediately popped like a pimple with white liquid in it. Since then, there has been no pain or discomfort anymore; however, I noticed that there is a tiny shiny pink pimple left over. It almost looks like a tiny sebaceous gland pimple with no head on it. It does not hurt or bother me, but it does make me feel insecure when I see it. Can you please help me figure out what this is?
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I thoroughly read your query and understand your concern.
It would be better if you would send me your detailed gynecological, obstetrical, menstrual, medical, and drug history. If you sent a picture of the lesion and a clear location, it would help me to easily sort it out. It could be leftover of a pustule or inflammation or sebaceous gland cyst. It is better to have one local check-up by a gynecology specialist, as you have not sent me a picture of your lesion.
My suggestions for your condition are:
Check for any other lesion you have, and in case of any symptoms and report them here or to a local gynecologist.
I hope this has answered your query.
Kind regards.
