Lump Inside Labia Tissue, Painful. What Can Be Done?
Lump inside labia tissue. Its not a sore or a pimple or boil or ingrown hair. It is like a marble deep inside skin. Not bartholian gland or cysts. There are two in the left labia and one in the right. It is very painful to wipe and sit and its tender to the touch.

Hello and welcome to HCM,
I read your query and understood the concern. It sounds like an infected cyst (either skene duct cyst or epidermal cyst) or folliculitis under your skin.
In either of the condition medical treatment remains same.
Consult your physician and get a prescription of oral antibiotics like amoxyclav / cephalexin. Apply warm compresses (not hot) to the affected area. Do not manipulate or disturb the area.
Hope I helped
