I am a 17 year old female. And for the past two days, I have noticed some pimple like bumps on the lips of my vagina. I don't know what they are. And they're very painful to touch. Please tell.

Folliculitis. Pimples in the genital area may be a result of infection of the hair follicle due to bacteria. Shaving your pubic hair is one potential cause of folliculitis. As your hair starts growing out of the follicle, it curls back toward the skin, causing irritation.
