    Swollen labia minora with painful bump
    The bump is very painful and looks almost more like a cyst or a cut with like a white soft scab. It is very painful!

    A swollen labia minora is less common than in the labia majora (With regards to cysts and warts), but as it's white, and particularly as it's painful, I'd see a doctor. It may be an infection.

    Often scabs on the genital area are related to STDs and STIs like Herpes. Definitely go to see your doctor!

    I'd go and see your doctor if I were you!

    However don't panic!

    It could be as simple as something called a sebaceous cyst, which is a build up of the oily white substance produced by your sebaceous glands - it is very common and something your doctor will have seen all the time - so nothing to be embarrassed about - I have personally had one! It could quite simply be one of these that has got a little infected and can be treated very easily. I hope you get it sorted soon!
