What Causes Lump In The Labia Minora?
I have a bump on my labia majora. I get these occasionally- I usually assume they re bug bites but this one isn t going away. I never have more than one at a time. It s swollen because I keep poking at it to about the size of a pea. Also, I think it s filled with blood, but I cannot figure out a way to lance it.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem is most likely bartholin cyst. It is better to have an examination by gynecologist to rule out the condition. You can apply hot towel on it . It it is getting infected antibiotic should be taken. If this persist then it can be excised surgically. If continuously you are getting this then marsupialization will help you. Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further queries.
Thanks
