What Causes A Small Bump On Labia?
I have a very tiny bump that looks similar to a bug bite on my labia. I have been sexually active lately with a condom, and I do shave regularly. Im going to a doctor soon but I just wanted a rough idea as to what it could be because Im really scared....

Hello and welcome.
If I would know the exact location it would have helped but with the description of a boil on or around the labia I can suspect conditions like Bartholin's cyst, folliculitis, cyst, boil, etc.
In the meantime, please avoid sexual contact and try to apply a lukewarm compress to the region several times a day to help improve circulation and reduce the swelling.
Best wishes.
