Brief Answer:
It can be bartholin cyst or abscess.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Your symptoms are suggestive of bartholin cyst or abscess.
- Advice from my side-
- take sitz bath
- keep area XXXXXXX dry
- use bactrovin ointment on it
- use antibiotic and pain killer
- maintain vaginal hygiene
- if not resolved then sometimes it required drainage under local anaesthesia
-it is not a very serious problem occur due to blockage of bartholin gland( saebaceous gland) and they get infected.
Hope I have answered your query if you have further questions I will be happy to help you.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
