So, you have jumped a pimple on an intimate place. What is the reason? As the most common factors, doctors name, firstly, conditions that are accompanied by a violation of the hormonal background (these include pregnancy, menopause and the so-called "transitional age"). In addition, pimples may indicate an unsuccessful epilation of the bikini area and non-compliance with hygiene rules. Think about it, do you abuse synthetic underwear? The appearance of rashes can also be triggered by malnutrition, severe stress, sexually transmitted infections.
Seals
By the way, quite often what we mistakenly take for a pimple in an intimate place is not at all such. The lumps, which look like little white dots, are actually hair follicles that will grow into pubic hair in the future.
Sebaceous glands
A pimple on an intimate place may well be an enlarged sebaceous gland. This is due to the fact that the skin in the intimate area is thinner and more delicate than anywhere else. That is why the sebaceous glands are easily mistaken for pimples. Such skin formations will not cause you the slightest harm - of course, if you do not squeeze them out. Otherwise, your skin may be damaged. The best thing you can do is train yourself to regularly treat the inflamed areas with special antibacterial agents. In addition, it is necessary to observe personal hygiene (wash yourself daily and change underwear regularly) and refuse junk food.
Inflammation
However, a pimple in an intimate place may not be as harmless as it seems. If in appearance it resembles acne on the face, this indicates a blockage of the sebaceous glands. It looks rather unaesthetic, besides, such pimples can hurt a lot and stain panties when ripe.
Treatment
A purulent pimple on an intimate place can be removed by yourself. To do this, gently wash the affected area with warm water, wipe it dry and apply a compress of aloe pulp over the inflammation (just take a leaf, cut it in half and secure with a band-aid). The compress should be left overnight. This remedy will relieve inflammation in just a few days - the very next morning you will see that the pimple has significantly decreased in size. Also, an abscess can be treated several times a day with hydrogen peroxide (you can buy it at a pharmacy). In order to speed up the process of acne maturation, you can use iodine or Vishnevsky ointment. All these tools are quite cheap, but very effective. Squeezing a pimple in an intimate place is notrecommended: this will only make things worse.
Cyst
If your skin in the groin area is covered with white subcutaneous tubercles - this is nothing but cysts. Their appearance is explained quite simply: the sebaceous gland is closed by the skin, as a result of which fat accumulates under the skin. It hardens quite quickly, so it is not possible to squeeze it out. Removal of cysts is performed surgically and usually takes only a couple of minutes.
