Question 1

hello i have itchy tiny red bumps on my mons pubis that recently happened, how can i  reduce it or make it go away?

Accepted Answer

Rash: Could be inflammation of the hair follicles. This can happen from any method of hair removal. If you shave, be sure to use a clean, sharp blade. If you use other hair removal products, you may be having an allergic reaction, so don't use them again. Try soaking the skin 20 min. Avoid any products on the area. Go without undies at night. If painful blisters see a doctor to check for herpes.

Question 2

i have some painless, non-itchy bumps in my mons pubis region. the bumps have been there for about three weeks. what could they be?

Accepted Answer

Folliculitis?: Several things could do this, but the most common is folliculitis, i.e. pimple-like infection/inflammation, especially if some bumps have pubic hairs in the center. Pubic folliculitis is especially common in young people who shave the area. See a doctor to confirm and get appropriate treatment. If you shave, stop for a couple of weeks.

Question 4

i have very itchy, dry, and slightly raised bumps on my mons pubis that are a red-ish brown color. is this just dry skin? what can i do to treat it?

Accepted Answer

Bumps: It is hard to judge based on just your description. It could be dry skin but it also could be an infection like folliculitis or molluscum contagiosum.

Question 5

why is my mons pubis so itchy? there are some red bumps that don't go away. i am not sexually active so i do not think it is crabs..could it be?

Accepted Answer

Infection or contact: Folliculitis(infection around and at hair follicles) and allergic contact dermatitis both can have this symptom/sign. You'd better check it with dermatologists.

Question 6

i have been on lexapro (escitalopram) for about 2 months and noticed that since starting, i've had an itchy rash on my mons pubis area. is it coming from the lexapro (escitalopram)?

Accepted Answer

Rash: Some people do get a rash with medications like lexapro, (escitalopram) but it's usually more generalized rather than being in only one place.  You might want to look at your underwear for sources of irritation, plus whether you've been using a different laundry soap?  Your primary care doctor can take a look, and offer more personalized ideas.

Question 7

i have a reoccurring hard bump on the right side of my mons pubis. the bump is kind of tender & hurts when i press on it & super itchy. what is it?

Accepted Answer

Get in: This could be a lymph node, a cyst or another typer of mass. I recommend that you get in to have the lump evaluated by your physician to make sure it is not something serious. In the meantime, you can place some heat on the area and see if it gives you some relief.  Take care.

Question 8

shaved mons pubis area got 1ingrown hair i think. area very dry&itchy like usual. bump opened/bled i think from scratching. normal? no pain/symptoms

Accepted Answer

Yes: When you scratch (knowingly or not) you can tear tissue and lead to bleeding. Just keep it clean and it should heal.

Question 9

Skin rash?: Your info is insufficient for assessment.vThe spots may represent an allergic reaction to a chemical or substance in the underwear but other possibilities such as fungal infection cannot be excluded. Check with a dermatologist if the issue persists
