General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,Dear,Thanks for the query to HCM.I went through your query and understood your health concerns.
In My opinion- that lump on left side of clitoris- could be due to -cyst of the Bartholin gland, with retention due to infective blockage of the bartholin gland, may be caused from trauma/ viral/ bacterial infection.
-Plz show it to ER Doctor who would treat it accordingly.
Treatment-
a-Tb NSAID for the pain
b-Antibitotics for to control infection
c-Most of the time it subsides in 5 days time.
d-If it persists and grows -then Excision of the Cyst would be done by Gynaec-Surgeon .
No need to worry as its retention cyst of the bartholin glands mostly.
-Hope this would help to resolve your worrysome query on your next visit with your family GP doctor.
Wellcome for further query to HCM in this regard.

Wishing you fast recovery.
