Patient's question:
My grandmother is 80 years old. Today, while giving her a bath, I noticed many small bumps with white tips on both sides of her labia. They don't hurt or itch. She said it's been a year, starting with just one bump. When she scratched it, it broke and then more grew. I want to know what this could be. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
The body is now mainly experiencing the recurrence of many local skin inflammations. Many elderly people develop small bumps that are neither painful nor itchy, and this does not require treatment. This condition may be caused by contagiousness and poor hygiene, so it should be promptly addressed. You can appropriately use warm water for frequent washing and also apply zinc oxide ointment externally a few times. Generally, this can be somewhat effective.
