Hi,

Thanks for consulting us. As this bump or swelling is there for more than a year now, it need to be investigated and treated properly. You cannot just ignore it by taking it as an ordinary infection or using antibiotics.

My best advise for you is to visit a Gynecologist in your area For formal consultation as it could be something serious like an abnormal growth.

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