Suggest Treatment For A Small Bump In The Labia Majora

I have a small read bump on my labia minora. I was wondering what it could possibly be. It showed up a few days ago. The bump isn't painful, I'm just concerned as to what it could be. I tend to sweat a lot in my vaginal area, could it be from sweat or vaginal discharge?

Hello
This could be vaginal discharge
Here I would like further information for better assessment of the condition.
Are you sexually active
Any recent exposure of unprotected sex?
Relevant medical history like diabetes, liver or kidney disease

I see patients with similar problem in my clinic I would advise them for battery of tests to rule out STI like Serological tests for syphilis, Chancroid, herpes or LGV.

After confirmation of diagnosis by physical examination and lab reports I would them on antibiotics under supervision.

Meanwhile maintain good hygiene
Hot water bath is advisable
wash your private parts with antiseptic soap or solution and keep it clean and moist

I hope you will find my response informative and helpful.
Best wishes
