Suggest Treatment For Painful Nodules Near The Labia
I am 72 years old. I have a very tender nodule inside the labia that has been there for at least 3 years. I have been for biopsy, been to gyn and dermatologist, had prescription creams, and other stuff, for dryness and itching, no help. There has been no discharge or odor, I do not use scented detergent, or soap. Any suggestions?

Hello,
Maybe because other treatments are not helping with the nodule and because it is uncomfortable and painful, it may be a good idea to consider removing it.
You may talk with your doctor on the possibility of having it surgically removed.
I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
