Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

For this, there are few causes and most common is Bartholin's Cyst which is located midway of the labia, and protrudes into the vagina and may cause discomfort during sexual intercourse. Bartholin's cyst is formed when a Bartholin's gland is blocked, causing a fluid-filled cyst to develop.

Bartholin's cyst is not an infection, although it can be caused by an infection, inflammation, or physical blockage (mucus or other impediments) to the Bartholin's ducts (tubes which lead from the glands to the vulva).

Second, an infected hair follicle may form the small abscess, which can cause a small swelling, but it is associated with redness and throbbing pain.

Proper diagnosis requires a proper physical examination of the swelling in question. You might consult a gynecologist who can examine and then decide on the appropriate treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein
