Hello,
The lumps in the labia are commonly related to a foruncle, which is an infection of the hair follicle. I suggest to continue using the antibiotics as prescribed by your doctor. I also suggest to use an antibiotic cream for local application. It will relieve gradually.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
