What Causes Painless Lump In Labia Majora?
I m 51 y/o, 5 6 , 193 lbs. Notice a hard lump, painless, seems to grew a little, inside the skin of my labia majora on the lower right side. Is this an indication of cancer? A few months ago I had a bump appearing at lest 2x then disappear. Is it related?

hi.
noted history of lump in labia majora. it could be a cystic formation or a follicular reaction, which got infected, eventually becoming a cyst or an abscess formation. it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a gynecologist, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. diagnostics and management (medical and/or surgical excision if indications are found) will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
