Vaginal Area Was Irritated. Had A Bump On Clitoris. Squeezed Out White Bumps And Used Neospirin, What Is Advised?
Question: Yesterday I realized my vaginal area was irritated. It was last night that I realized there was a huge bump ON my clitoris. It already had some white stuff poking out of it ( I know, gross) so I just squeezed it out..and then I put neosporin on it and went to sleep. I woke up today and saw that it has not gotten better but worse I tried to just touch it and it was excruciating. Any advice would be very appreciated.
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
From your description it seems that you are having an infected hair follicle or an infected sebaceous cyst near your clitoris. Other possibility is a bartholin's abscess.
In all these cases, proper expression of any pus inside.
You need to consult your gynecologist for appropriate prescriptions.
Mean while you can take a mild pain killer like acetaminophen or ibuprofen and do a hot fomentation in the area. Only expression of the white stuff is not sufficient to bring relief if it is a sebaceous cyst or bartholin's abscess. Complete removal of the cyst is needed for the cure.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
