What Causes A Painful Lump On The Labia Majora?

I have a lump on my labia majora. It s bean sized and it is under the skin and is moveable. Feels kind of like a little ball. I don t know what it could be? I ve never had this happen before? It s been here for a few weeks maybe a month? I m not sure but I thought it would go away and it hasn t. It doesn t hurt bit it s weird and uncomfortable and I don t know what this is please help. Is it a cyst, or a pimple or a ingrown hair? It s only on the right side.

Hi
Welcome to the website


From your description, you could be suffering from a cyst in your skin (of the labium).

Most of these are harmless, but if it is worries you consult a local doctor and get it removed. A very simple procedure is usually sufficient.

Then the pathology report can help you be sure what it is.

Hope that helps.

You can also follow up with a well lit picture of the problem site for more information on the same.
