How To Treat A Large Lump In Upper Labia Majora During Pregnancy?
I have a nickel sized lump in the upper area of my labia majora. It s under the skin. I ve had this for a few years without any pain, but now that I m 19 weeks pregnant, there is localized pain in that area. It hurts to put pressure on my leg and I ve been walking with a limp. At night when I m trying to fall asleep there will be a burning sensation. I m wondering if this pain would be coming from that lump or if I may be having pelvic that just happens to also be in that area.

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely bartholincyst. Hot fomentation will be helpful for this. This cyst can be asymptomatic. But can cause secondary bacterial infection in this. As you have burning sensation there is a suspection for this. In such case you should have an examination with your gynecologist. Let me know if anything not clear. I am happy to help you. Thanks
