Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.

Based on what you are describing, and without the ability to perform an exam, the two possibilities include:
1. An inflamed Bartholin gland cyst (usually occurs as an swelling in the area exactly like you have described)
2. A herpes outbreak (similar to cold sores on your mouth) which usually presents with painful blisters, swelling, and often burning with urination

You need to get into an OB/GYN TOMORROW and get this checked out. They can do an exam, culture, and pretty much tell you what is going on based on the exam alone.

In the meantime, you can soak in a tub and consider applying hydrocortisone cream (bought over the counter) to the area in hopes that this helps with the discomfort while you wait to be seen.

I hope that this helps and good luck!
