The organs and tissues of the vulva are drained by a chain of superficial inguinal lymph nodes located along the blood vessels. [24] The ilioinguinal nerve originates from the first lumbar nerve and gives branches that include the anterior labial nerves, which supply the skin of the mons pubis and the labia majora. [25]
