How to treat an infection on my labia minora i think?

Seek gyne care: I would first discuss with my gynecologist to exclude a possible cyst or other condition such as allergy or hidradenitis. This may affect the inner or outer labia.

See Gyn Doc.: Best to be seen by your gyn physician who will be able to diagnose and treat you appropriately. Cultures may be necessary prior to doing so. Best not to “self treat”.
