I found a small bump on my right labia minora, on the inside. It is smooth and round. When I check with a mirror, it doesn't look much different the the surround area. It is up somewhat near the clitoris. It doesn't seem to hurt. 3.5 weeks ago, I had an abscess on the other side, but further down. It was cut and drained, I was on antibiotics and used an antibiotic cream. It tested negative for hsv 1 and 2, chlamydia and gonorrhea. I am 39 and have had 2 children. The youngest is 7. My doctor does not have any appointments for a few days, so I am trying to get an idea of what it could be to calm my nerves. Thank you.

Hello- Pimples/bumps in the genital area may be a result of infection of the hair follicle due to bacteria. Shaving your pubic hair is one potential cause of folliculitis. As your hair starts growing out of the follicle, it curls back toward the skin, causing irritation.
