What Is A Lump Under The Mons Pubis Area Suggestive Of?

Hello, I have a lump that isn t painful under my mons pubic area. I have no idea what it is, I haven t shaved or waxed in months, and I have been noticing more ingrown hairs down there. I am pretty active and usually don t wear 100% cotton underwear. I am leaving the country for a month, but don t have insurance till the 1st of the year. Should I be worried about it being or turning into an abcess? Or what could this be? What should I do?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Lump under mons pubis could be due to hair follicle infection, sebaceous cyst, lipoma, bartholin cyst, vesicle.
Physical examination by lady primary care physician is must to confirm the cause.
Specific treatment depend on cause.
Following treatment will help you:
Apply warm pad application, take frequent hot bath
Apply mupirocin ointment twice daily
Do wax very carefully and avoid rough wax
Wear pure cotton loose inner and keep area clean and dry
Maintain proper pelvic hygiene by using V vaginal plus wash.
If pus will come out then it will heal in 2-3 week
If not resolves then it should be excised by putting incision under advise of your physician
Hope this may help you
