What Causes Painful Small Brown Spot On Clitoris?

default
Posted on Mon, 4 Jan 2016
Question: Hello, I have noticed a tiny dark (brown) spot on the clitoris that is 1-2mm long and looks like a scab. Its painful to the touch (more like a needlepoint pain). Also I can see that right under the skin (where the scab is) there is a bump, I had those bumps for a long time and it never bothered me. Im a healthy 30 year old with three kids. Not sexuality active for the past year. Before that been only with my husband, So rule out any STDs. I'm wondering what it could be and starting to worry. Scheduled MD appt but its almost 2 weeks away. Please help!!

Thank you for answering, no there is no vaginal discharge, and no another symptoms. I haven't notice any difference in size since I just discovered it yesterday. When I took a picture I saw another dark spot that I didn't see before:( now I'm really worried, I'll try to load the picture. Not sure how, Can it be cancerous ? Thank you so much Doctor for taking the time to answer.

Brief Answer:
It can be due to benign mole.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Sorry for such a long delay in my response.
I have gone through your images and history and in my opinion it is most likely a benign mole.
If any color changes, size and symptoms occur than it needs evaluation.
So in your case it is most likely a benign mole.
Hope found useful, feel free to ask more information.
Good luck.
