What Causes Small Bumps In The Perineal Region?
Hi, i have two small bumps on my perineum and am wondering what they are. For the most part they are flesh colored with maybe a hint of white on top. They do not hurt, though they itch a little whenever i touch them. There doesnt seem to be any fluid inside of them.

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to folliculitis which is an infection of the hair follicles. I suggest cleaning the area with antibacterial soap.
I also suggest to use Neosporin cream for local application. I recommend to maintain good hygiene and use cotton underwear.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
