default
Posted on Mon, 17 Sep 2018
Question: I have these small bumps going all of the way from the inside of my vagina to the middle of my labia minora. It seems like they occur in a straight line and occur on both sides but mostly in the left side. Could they be genital warts of vestibular papillae?

Brief Answer:

More likely to be vestibular papillae.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

I have seen the attached images. The bumps that you have are likely to be vestibular papillae.

The lesions of herpes are usually painful and are more prominent with itching or watery discharge with other symptoms like fever and intense pain.

This is likely to be a normal variation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Should these bumps disappear eventually or will they be there forever? They seem to have appeared right after I was treated for a yeast infection.

Also this wouldn't be genital warts would it?

Okay. Should these bumps hurt when they are being touched or when I wipe after using the bathroom?
