Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The edema that you are having around your labia can be due to a blocked lymphatic drainage or filariasis or a local inflammation. A direct examination and few blood investigations are needed to find out the cause so that proper treatment can be initiated.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
