What Do The Red Blotches On Labia Minora Indicate?

I have red blotches on my labia minora, I showed it two several doctors and they say it is not cancer but they didn't do any biospy. It is not itchy but sometimes there is a slight burn but barely. I am just conscious of it and I am constantly looking at it with a mirror

Hi. Such red blotches can usually be due to an infection and proper cleaning , local application of liquid Betadine ( povidone iodine) and may be an antibiotic can help you get alright. Biopsy may not have been necessary as per the Doctors' clinical examination. You can always request for one but it may not be wise to have wound or scar at such a sensitive area. Another reason is this is the post unlikely site for the cancer to develop; in fact never seen or heard or read.
