Hard lumps in the female genital area can be caused by folliculitis, chancre caused by syphilis or vulvar cancer.
1. Folliculitis: Reddened hard lumps may appear around hair follicles in women with pubic hair on the vulva that have been infected by Staphylococcus aureus.
2. Chancre caused by syphilis: The chancre caused by infection of the vulva with the spirochete syphilis manifests itself as a painless nodule, which can be felt as a hard lump in the vulva when touched.
3. Vulvar cancer: Vulvar cancer patients will have hard lumps on the vulva, which will not disappear on their own.
If the phenomenon of hard lumps appears in women’s private parts, they should go to the hospital in time for consultation and treatment under the doctor’s guidance, so as to avoid delaying the disease and worsening the condition.
