Hello dear
Understand your concern
Bump around the clitoris need medical examination to confirm the diagnosis.
I think following possibility
Skene's duct cyst, Blocked hair follicle/folliculitis, Blocked sweat gland Fordyce cyst, Bartholin cys
Do not pop up the bump as it cause infections
But when it is assocaited with pain, itching , redness,
Then require excision followed by antibiotics
Maintain proper pelvic hygiene and keep the area clean & dry
Hope this may help you
Contact HCM for further health query
Best regards
