skin on outer labia
Posted: 04-09-08 18:59pm

Hey,
This is kinda gross but bear with me.

Recently, like in the past few months or so I have developed an odd patch of skin on my outer labia. It is shiny and smooth to the touch, a litle bit discolored (it seems pinker and lighter then the rest of the skin), also no hair grows there. Also next to it, there is a little lump, it just feels hard under the skin and occasionally if I squeeze it pus or lymph will come out. Also it can get very very itchy.
I am in a commited relationship and neither of us sleep around so I have am pretty sure it is not an std.

Any help??

it could be a sebaceous cyst, here is a link to a website you can read and let me know if that is what it sounds like, if not i can try to find more information for you.

no matter what it is, i think you might want to see your gynocologist
