What Causes Bump In Vagina?

I have a bump the left lip on my vagina, about the middle of being between my clitoris and vaginal opening. It was what looked like to me was like a bubble or something that was very small like a pubic hair folicule, that when i scratched it off became swollen, red or irritated. About two days later, it became a hard inner oblong feeling ball. When i squezed that ball, pus ozzed out a little and i wiped it off... ozzed out pus a few more times, wiping repeatedly after squeezing, then turned bloody pus coming out clearer each time after. The day after, i woke up to that oblong hard feeling ball, filled with pus, and bloody pus. What might it be? How can i get rid of it? Is it an std or something?

Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
The swelling, it's location and symptoms you have described seems to be of bartholin gland abscess.
Bartholin gland us the gland present in the vaginal opening, which if infected, can lead to bartholin gland cyst and abscess.
If not very large, it can be treated with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
If large and causing much pain, then it needs to be drained by a minor surgery.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
