Pimples on a woman's genitals may indicate a local skin infection.
Acne can be caused by skin infections such as folliculitis, sebaceous cysts, or genital warts. These conditions can cause pimples in the genital area, accompanied by pain, redness, and swelling. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention as soon as possible for diagnosis and appropriate treatment. While waiting for your appointment, keep the genital area clean and dry, and avoid scratching or squeezing the pimples to prevent infection or the spread of inflammation.
If pimples are accompanied by itching, pain, or abnormal discharge, it may be caused by bacterial vaginosis, vulvitis, or other sexually transmitted infections. These conditions require evaluation by a professional doctor and treatment with appropriate antibiotics or antifungal medications.
For women, due to the special structure of their reproductive organs, any discomfort may affect fertility and health. Therefore, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly, especially when acne is accompanied by odor, bleeding, or persistent symptoms.
In addition, pay attention to personal hygiene habits in daily life, change underwear frequently, and use a mild cleanser to wash the genital area to avoid over-cleaning which can damage the skin barrier. At the same time, maintain a balanced diet, and consume more foods rich in vitamins C and E, which helps boost immunity and prevent skin infections.
