What Causes Painful And Swollen Lump Under The Skin Of Labia Minora?

I have a lump directly under the skin of my labia minora that is swelling and painful to the touch. I have had it for about a week and a half now (and haven t been sexually active for that week and a half mostly) and whenever I get the chance to drain it, on top I get normal blood, on the side I get whiteish pus. Please help me, I do not have enough money for a doctor s appointment and I m really scared.
