A member asked:
I have a sore bump on my vulva. i think it is a ingrown hair. any help with treatments . i am using a cortezone cream currently.?

Stop the cream: I recommend stopping the cortisone cream. It is a steroid and can thin out the vulvar tissue. If you do have an ingrown hair you can apply a warm washcloth to the area to see if the plugged area opens up.
