Brief Answer:
A photo is required...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I understand your concern.
Your 18 years old daughter is reporting a lump inside the vaginal lips , lump of bean size.
As this is not painful, can you please send a photo of that to me so I can evaluate myself?
If no discharge, the lump could be Bartholin's cyst. That is not worrisome, do not squeeze. Continue with warm compresses, and see if discharge is coming out.
However a good physical examination would give a help.
Looking forward to have the requested photo in.
