What Causes Small Lump On Inner Thigh?
Hi I am a female 15 years old and have a pea sized bump under my skin on the side of my vulva near my inner thigh. It increases and decreases in size. It is not painful but feels like it is under the skin and tender/squishy. I am a virgin and have never had sexual contact.

Hi,
This is likely to be a Bartholin's cyst. This is a small fluid-filled cyst and it is not serious. If it is small and not painful it is best to do nothing. However, I advise you see your doctor to have it examined to confirm the diagnosis.
