If you shave, they may be razor bumps or ingrown hairs. If you are sexually active you should see a doctor if they don't go away in a couple of days or if they itch, burn, or if you notice an odor from them (can be any one of these, not all three). Try not to pick them becuase by breaking them open you are introducing bacteria that could develope into infection. Keep the area clean and as dry as possible, don't shave until they are gone, and go to the doctor for the reasons that I mentioned before.

Ok, so I may be giving out too much information too. However, I had something similar happen to me. Still does each and every summer. I thought that I had something "wrong" down there, but turns out after many visits to the doctor, I'm just very prone to getting boils. Which apparently are extremely common in places where there tends to be hair, sweat and rubbage. Don't fret. It's probably just that. To take care of it, do not squeeze, stick it with a needle or scratch. This can cause the infection to go deeper, only resulting in a larger more painful bump. Simply apply hot compresses 2-3 times daily to draw infection to the surface and in just a few days they should be gone. Hope this helps any.

Calm down, have you shaved recently? These sound like hair bumps but without actually examining you it would be hard to say. Have you had unprotected sex? Don't be offended just a process of elimination. Stop picking with them at any rate and go to the doctor. You will feel better once you know. Hope everything works out.

Small imperfections on your labia aren't something to get all excited about. Everyone is made different and it's skin, just like on the rest of your body...susceptible to the same irritations as skin everywhere else. Unless it hurts, itches or oozes something nasty, you probably have nothing to worry about. If it bothers you that much, go to a doctor.

it could be anything. a hair bump if you shave. a pimple. a herpe. probably not a wart. but the only way to know for sure is to see a doc asap before they resolve themselves. that way if there was somethign serious u would know what it was, as to not pass it on, or to be treated. it might be something else serious manifesting itself as bumps on ur labia.

It's probably just and ingrown hair or pimples. However, if they get really irritated after you quit messing with them, I would call the doctor or nurse or make an appointment to see one.

If your sexually active it could be an STD...herpes ect...but it doesn't really sound like it...
It could be something as simple as an ingrown hair, but to be safe consult your doctor. You could also technically get pimples down there...due to sweat glands and what not...

The white bumps are kind of common in that area. Not so good to squeeze on them. If you are worried, contact your gyn.

It might be a sebaceous cyst. They're completely normal, but you should have it looked at by your gynecologist anyway, just to make sure. They usually go away on their own, but if you irritated yours, it might take longer. You're supposed to leave them alone, but if you make it bleed...once again, you need to go to your gynecologist.
