It's essential to consult a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, consider the following: Maintain good hygiene: Clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid scratching or popping the pimples, as this can lead to infection. Use a gentle, fragrance-free soap and avoid scented products. Apply a topical antibiotic cream or an antifungal cream, as advised by your doctor. Schedule an appointment with a gynecologist as soon as possible to determine the underlying cause.
