Is this a polyp or varicose vein on my labia? (Photos)

It’s important to distinguish between varicose veins and spider veins when choosing between laser therapy, sclerotherapy, and vein surgery. With two board certified vein specialists, our center uses a combination of visual examination, functional flow measurements, ultrasound, transillumination, and infrared light to map out vein networks prior to therapy. Lasers can be used to treat deep varicose vein insufficiency, vein perforators, and varicose veins. Sclerotherapy is ideal for spider veins and reticular veins. Whereas surgery is reserved for severely incompetent varicose vein segments.

I would see a vein specialist to evaluate this.  If it is easily compressible and not hard and tender then, I would consider injecting it as it appears to be a vein.  However, if you have alot of symptoms like pelvic fullness or pain or painful periods.  These may be   signs of pelvic insufficeincy and would need evaluation. 

The poste picture looks like a varicose vein and can easily be treated by sclerotherapy.  Several sessions may be necessary.

This appears to be a venous lake.  They can be tough to treat, but if no pain, I like to start with sclerotherapy.  Lasers can also work, but yours seems fairly large.It may require multiple treatments to fully resolve.Good luck to you,Dr. Powell
