Welcome! How can I help with your medical question? Hi. I'm a 25 year old female. I have a lump near my outer labia that is painless. I thought it could be an ingrown hair but its been there for almost 6 months now and hasn't grown bigger and is painless. Have you seen a doctor about this yet? What medications are you taking? No i haven't seen a doctor yet. I'm not on any kind of medications. Anything else in your medical history you think the doctor should know? I have irregular periods. Sometimes 40 day cycles and then it has been a normal cycle for 28 - 30 days. But the past two months I've been having 21 day cycles but the period discharge is very little and almost light.

Good evening
And thank you for joining us , and for your trust

How does this lump treated?

  1. Conservative management: in case of small, quiescent, asymptomatic cyst can be managed with sitz baths or warm compresses to aid drainage
  2. in case if it is symptomatic many techniques and approaches taken as marsipulization : which it is cutting a slit into an abscess or cyst whatever it is and suturing the edges of the slit to form a continuous surface from the exterior surface to the interior surface and by this way you offer a way for cyst or abscss content to be drained
  3. in association with a broad spectrum antibiotics as (co amoxiclave or clindamycin)
  4. catheter drainage in which a catheter should be left in place for 4-6 weeks to allow epithelialization of a tract and of course antibiotics should accompanied
  5. cauterizaton of cyst with Silver nitrate
  6. and surgical excision with antibiotics

what are the causes of this cyst?

  1. vagina is rich with secreting glands , and the duct of these gland could be obstrutcted by compression or a thick mucus lead to accumulation of secretions
  2. infection with microorganism that could resulte from ascending infection came from the enviroment ot as sexual transmitted disease
  3. trauma might lead to blood collection in that area called hematoma
  4. it could be a benign mass of soft tissue as in vulval lipoma or fibroma
  5. or malignant lesion which is very unlikely in your age

what are the symptoms of labial cyst

  1. pain wither if its at rest or when something touches it as during bath
  2. colorful discharge or bloody discharge 
  3. menstrual symptoms as menstrual irrigularities not exist , only if there is total obstruction that might cause amenorrhea and abdominal mass
  4. in case of abscess there is fever and malaise 
  5. spontaneous rupture 

how do we diagnose it?

  1. clinical examination:according to appearance and color and shape of the mass
  2. test the secretion to identify the type of mass by culture
  3. and the best method is biobsy that tested in the histopathology
