What Could Hard Lumps On Vagina Suggest?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...I have a large lump under the skin on the side of my vagina. It is unbelievably painful, and very red. It is hard and has gotten bigger since yesterday. I had a colposcopy about a month ago, what should I do, and should I worry?

Hi & Welcome to HCM
I appreciate your concern for the hard and painful lump inside the vagina.

After having gone through the history given in your query, I am of the opinion that you have developed infected Bartholin's cyst with an abscess.

Consult a gynecologist for as it may have to be surgically drained under anesthesia.
Meanwhile take Sitz bath 3-4 times a day.

Hope to have answered your query.
