There are small bumps on the outside of the female urethra

The structure of male reproductive organs is very complex, especially for women. Women usually need to pay attention to the hygiene and health of their sexual organs. If the sexual organs are diseased or inflamed, it will easily affect their health. The appearance of flesh lumps at the external urethral opening of women is also a relatively common symptom. There are many reasons for the appearance of flesh lumps at the external urethral opening of women. This may be a symptom caused by genital warts.

What is the reason for small bumps on the external opening of the urethra of women?

Small bumps appear on the outside of the urethra. Considering that it is a case of genital warts infection, it is usually infected through sexual intercourse.

Clinical symptoms

The dangerous period is from January to August, with an average of March, and mainly occurs in sexually active people.

1. Typical condyloma acuminatum

The most common locations are the sexual organs and around the anus. For men, the most common locations are foreskin, frenulum of the penis, coronal sulcus, glans penis, urethral opening, male genital body, around the anus, inside the duodenum and scrotum. For women, the most common locations are the labia majora and minora, posterior synovia, vestibule function, clitoris, cervix and around the anus. Occasionally, it can be seen in places other than the private parts and around the anus, such as the armpits, navel, mouth, breasts, and between the toes. Gynecological inflammation in women and long foreskin in men are the driving factors for the occurrence of genital warts.

The lesion initially appears as tiny pink papules, which then gradually expand and increase in size, appearing singly or in groups, moist and soft, with an uneven surface, and appearing as nipple-like, cockscomb-shaped, or cauliflower-shaped protrusions. Bright red or dirty dark grey. There are often pedicles at the roots, which are prone to produce erosive exudate and bleed easily when touched. Purulent secretions often accumulate in the gaps between skin lesions, causing a foul odor, and secondary infection may occur due to scratching. This disease often has no active symptoms, and some patients may experience discomfort, pain, itching or pain during sexual intercourse. Genital warts in the duodenum can cause pain, blood in the stool, and a feeling of anal prolapse.

2. HPV subclinical infection

It means that HPV infection is clinically invisible to the human eye, but direct evidence of HPV infection can be found by acetic acid whitening test (the area turns white after wiping or applying 5% acetic acid solution on the face), histopathology or DNA testing technology.

3. Association with tumors

Many clinical epidemiological materials show that HPV infection (mainly high-risk HPV, such as HPV-16 and HPV-18) is closely related to the occurrence of sexual organ cancers, such as cervical cancer and penile cancer.

The prognosis is generally good after treatment. However, no matter which treatment method is used, recurrence may occur.
