Suggest Remedy For Raw Irritated Lump Outside Labia Minora

Hi, I noticed this morning a pea-sized lump on the outside of my labia minora, right next to the crease between the minora and majora. It is painful to the touch and seems firm, but not rock hard. The skin in the crease next to it feels irritated as if it is raw. The lump only hurts if I place pressure on it or squeeze it. My boyfriend and I have been monogamous for 4 years and nothing like this has happened, so I m positive it isn t an STD. What is this lump and what can I do to get rid of it as soon as possible? Thanks.

Apply antibiotic cream after proper cleaning of part for 2-3days.
If size increases or tenderness remains, you might requires one course of antibiotic medicine course for 3-5 days.

Ok and take care.
