It has a foul odor and the keratin produces a number of sacs of cells. The substance present inside the cyst has a paste or cheesy like appearance. Swollen hair follicle present in the vulva of the vagina, any skin trauma or injury, excessive testosterone production generally seen in the teenagers, or even sexually transmitted disease can be the cause.
