How To Get Rid Of Painful Hard Lump On The Hood Of Clitoris?

I have a very painful hard lump on the hood of my clitoris. I believe it is an ingrown hair or clogged sweat gland, as I can feel how deepnit runs. It hurts to touch or squeeze it, but sometimes I can push out a little puss from it. What is it and how can I get rid of it?

Hi,

A photograph of the lump on the hood of your clitoris is much appreciated for a more specific opinion.

However, from what you are describing, the painful hard lump might be clogged sweat gland. I advise to apply warm compresses to the lump area to help get out the pus that might be inside.

Apply iodine and oxygenated water locally. If no improvement, should consult with your physician as more specific help is needed.

Wish fast recovery!
