Probably Bartholin's cyst, follow the advice below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Your symptoms seem to be related to Bartholin's cyst.

These glands secrete fluid that helps lubricate the vagina and can get infected.

I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication to treat the inflammation such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day.

I also recommend antibiotics such as Augmentin 625 mg twice a day for seven days.

I recommend to maintain a good hygiene and sink daily in warm water.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
