Question 2

i've started to get pimples on my bikini line and on the top of my vagina. what can i do to get rid of it? it's not a disease, i'm not sexually active

Accepted Answer

Shaving may be it: Pimple-like bumps in the bikini area can result from ingrown hairs or shaving. Taking a break from shaving whenever possible will help to allow the bumps to resolve.  Pimples can also resolve with acne cream.

Question 3

is it normal to have pimple like around the bikini line and i squirt and blood or brown pus comes out ?

Accepted Answer

Not normal: Sounds like you have either ingrown hair with reaction, or boils.  Have this seen by a doctor and perhaps cultured and treated if necessary.  Hope it clears up soon.

Question 4

got a small hard painful lump on bikini line, below my inner thigh bone, no redness or pimple like appearance. should i worry ?

Accepted Answer

Lump: Small firm lump in that area may be an ingrown hair or an inclusion cyst. Apparently there is no inflammation or infection. These lumps may not recede or need to be  removed, but for peace of mind, have your physician or dermatologist examine it.

Question 5

just noticed today adter working out red pimple like spots around bikini area?  havent had them before.  they have no pain and don't itch or anything.

Accepted Answer

See below: It is probably folliculitis or inflammation of the hair follicles from working out.  Try to wear loose clothing to prevent it.

Question 6

ok. my bikini area is constantly itchy and i have bumps all over that  practically looks like their pimples. what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Sounds like: folliculitis or ingrown hairs. See dermatologist for absolute answers and prescriptions to clear it. ALso laser hair removal can help get rid of it permanently (if it's folliculitis)

Question 7

i am a little chubby and get these pimples or boils between my thighs and in my bikini lines. i regularly clean my area. how do i stop getting them?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: Your doctor needs to examine you and run some tests to see what's going on.

Question 8

i have a pimple like bump in my bikini area. ob said pimple but culture in case. can herpes look like a bump then pimple then bump then little in24hrs?

Accepted Answer

Ingrown hair?: If it is a single lesion and not painful it is more likely to be an ingrown hair or folliculitis. Your doctor is testing it, so try to not worry about it until the results are back.

Question 9

i have a small painful pimple/lump around the bikini like in the pubic area. im not sure if its an ingrown or a pimple. it only hurts when i touch it, and its a bit red. it doesnt have any unusual shape. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Likely folliculitis: The area is covered with hair follicle sites &amp; these are prone to invasion by skin germs on occasion. They enter the mouth of oil producing glands near the hair root &amp; feed off that material. Local application of moist heat will often bring them to drain at the surface so they can heal. If the area becomes swollen/hard or red it could require surgical drainage.

Question 10

can you please recommend lotion or something that's meant to get rid of razer or waxing pimples/bumps on the bikini area?

Accepted Answer

Razor bumps: You can use a razor bump cream that is available at the drug store. Make sire it does not contain alcohol. In the future use a depilatory cream to avoid the razor bumps.
