    Question

    Hi i recently i got this bump/pimple grow in between my vaginal lips. I don't see any hair growing from there. It is painful when i touch it. And sometimes it itch a little. I haven't been active for sex for two weeks. Do i need to consult a doctor or will it goes off on its on?

    Answer

    You can get pimples anywhere you have skin, so you can treat it like a pimple, leave it alone, warm compress if it hurts, or you can have it checked by a doctor to make sure it is not something else. Good luck!
