	Answer by Dr.Bhumika Aggarwal (doctor) on Sat 19, Jul 2008 08:22am: Hi, I am assuming that when you say the vagina area, you mean the groin area and not a sore "inside" the vagina. Did you wear a bikini or some tight undergarments recently which might have caused friction or injury? Or do you think there was a bump at the site, which may have been injured further? This bump may have been caused by hair removal and subsequent infection of the hair follicle. There are a few things you can do immediately. Wear loose clothes, apply antiseptic lotions, keep the area clean and hygienic are some preliminary things. Further, you may use pain killers if it has considerable tenderness. I am hoping that you dont have diabetes or any other disorder. However, an examination can do well for you and help you get a definite diagnosis and treatment. I would recommend going to your doctor and get more information on this. Hope this helped. Let me know if you may need more help.
