Zits on vagina are nothing but pimples formed because of different reasons. Pimples in the vaginal area are called sebaceous cysts. Pimples are considered a normal part of puberty. Nearly eight out of ten teens will have some form of breakouts. Zits vagina will be mostly because of some hormonal defects.

It follows the same kind of course as a facial sebaceous cyst. Mostly they form because of the abundance of bacteria in the area. Zits are generally a cluster of small fluid-filled blisters that break, forming painful sores that crust. They heal over the course of several days. But some people get only rash or small bumps on the skin that appears to be pimples. Some have painful urination and some women have fluid discharge from the vagina.

Symptoms come and go with varying frequency and duration. One person may have an outbreak once a year, while another may have one every few weeks. Before flare-up of zits vagina, there is often an itching, tingling, or burning sensation in the affected area, and sharp pains in the pelvis or down the leg.

The pimples may be caused by irritation around the area. Often they are caused by wearing clothing that is too tight or underwear made of synthetic material. If this is the case, try to keep the area dry. You can find ease while using non greasy Acne lotion and consider wearing cotton underwear. Or at least wear underwear with a cotton crotch, as well as looser fitting clothing.

If you are sexually active, I would suggest abstaining from sex or using a condom until a doctor has diagnosed the problem. The better way to be really sure is to get a STD test or get your partner tested to avoid worries.

Compress vaginal zits using hot or moist disinfectants or water, which can bring the pus out of the surface. It will eventually drain on its own or with minimal pressure. Once it has drained, use an antibiotic ointment on it a couple of times a day. You can get these over-the-counter very inexpensively. You can use generic brands of triple antibiotic ointment.

Don't pick, pop, or squeeze your skin. In addition to causing scarring, this can spread the oil and cause additional pimples. Use an over-the-counter lotion containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide to help prevent and clear up zits vagina.
