Thanks for your question on HCM.
By your history and description, in my opinion you are having infected boil or infected sebaceous cyst.
Painful, whitish swelling suggest infection.
And clitoris area is having a lot of moisture and hair.
So possibility of skin infection like boil and sebaceous cyst is more.
So better to consult gynecologist and get done clinical examination.
You may need antibiotics.
Avoid too much moisture in private parts.
Wear cotton undergarments only.
Take proper hygiene of vaginal area.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
