What are the bumps on the external genitalia during pregnancy

Patient's question:

During pregnancy, many bumps have grown on the external genitalia. It's been over 8 months now, and there's muscle pain in the pubic hair area. Tests showed no sexually transmitted diseases or vaginitis! The bumps are numerous and somewhat large, and when squeezed, some feel slightly hard.

Doctor's answer:

Consider it to be vulvitis, pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the external genital area, do not wash the external genital area with soap, try to restrain from scratching and rubbing the affected area, and apply anti-inflammatory medication according to your sensitivity. It is recommended not to eat spicy and irritating foods such as chili peppers, pepper, ginger, scallions, and garlic; eat fried foods less or not at all. It is recommended that you go to a local regular gynecological hospital in time for diagnosis and treatment.
