Bump near my urethra on labia minora

[Pennypanda]

I have a bump on my labia minora near my urethra. I just noticed it today while in the bathroom, it doesn't really hurt. I don't know how it got there or what to do. I'm not sexually active. The most my boyfriend has done is rub my clitorus, and that was Saturday, so I'm not sure if that could have done anything. Please help

Honestly, this is something we just can't diagnose or identify without seeing it. You may be noticing an ingrown hair or pimple; they can happen on labia as well as other parts of the body. If you notice it's hurting or swollen for several days, you could check in with a doctor, otherwise it's best to leave it be and it may go away on its own.

Could it be anything serious?

Like I said, there's no way to know. It would be irresponsible for us to guess what a bump could be when we can't see it. But there are plenty of non-serious things that could be, like a pimple or ingrown hair as I mentioned before.
