What causes small bumps on female vulva?

What causes small bumps on female vulva? Many people think it is a sexually transmitted disease, but in fact, most sexually transmitted diseases are transmitted through unclean sexual contact. If this kind of behavior has not occurred, then the possibility that the small bumps on the genitals are sexually transmitted diseases will be greatly reduced. So what specifically causes small bumps on women’s vulva?

1. Pseudo-condyloma

This symptom is caused by general vaginal inflammation and excessive leucorrhea, and is called pseudo-condyloma. Pseudo-condyloma is a type of disease that presents as velvety or caviar-like protrusions on the inner side of the labia minora. These may be pink or slightly transparent and are of relatively uniform size. There are no subjective symptoms and no treatment is required.

2. Genital warts

There are other possibilities for small bumps on the vulva: one is genital warts caused by human papillomavirus infection. This disease is mainly caused by unclean sexual life and is a sexually transmitted disease. Currently in the clinical practice of the Department of Urology and Venereology, it is found that the symptoms of pimples on the female vulva are basically caused by infection with genital warts. Therefore, when women find pimples on their vulva, they should pay attention to it and seek timely diagnosis and treatment.

3. Vestibular gland cyst

Small bumps on the vulva may be Bartholin's gland cysts. The exit of the Bartholin's gland is located on the inner side of the labia minora, and bacteria can easily invade and cause inflammation. Generally, bacteria first invade the epithelium of the Bartholin's gland ducts, causing the mucosa to swell, or adhesions to form after the tissue at the opening of the duct is destroyed, causing the opening of the duct to be blocked, and the secretions cannot be discharged, thus forming a Bartholin's gland cyst. It is often unilateral and of varying sizes.

4. Vulvitis

Another possible reason for small bumps on the vulva is vulvitis: this is caused by vaginitis caused by bacteria, mold, Trichomonas, etc., which stimulate the skin of the vulva through leucorrhea. In daily life, the vulva is easily contaminated with urine, feces, and leucorrhea, so that the vulva skin is often in a humid environment, which is suitable for bacterial growth. At this time, if the vulvar skin is abraded, or if hygiene is not paid attention to, or the body's resistance is reduced, the hair follicles and surrounding tissues will be infected by staphylococci and other bacteria, which will cause local vulvitis and vulvar eczema.

The above introduces what causes small bumps on the female vulva. If a woman has bumps on her vulva, she must seek medical attention promptly. Only by finding the correct cause can better treatment be carried out to avoid delaying treatment and causing other dangers.
