General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Dear thanks for the question.

Firstly I would like to advise you not to try home remedies without visiting a doctor as it could be serious which may be missed. Itchy bumps in vagina is mostly fungal which is not local. In your case it seems to be located in a defined area it is most probably bacterial in origin.

You can try a course of antibiotics (azithromicin 500 mg once a day for three days) along with pain killers (ibuprofen). Also give due attention to hygiene.

I wish you a rapid recovery.
