Hallow Dear,
Near the opening of vagina, under Labia majora, there are glands named as Bartholin's Glands. These glands may get infected during intercourse if the partner is having infection. These glands get infected usually by STD - Chlamydia or Gonorrhoea. If it forms abscess, it will require incision and marsupialization.
Please report to your Gynaecologist. Early treatment may prevent abscess formation.
Both of you need to undergo antibiotics treatment simultaneously to prevent the recurrence.
I hope this helps you.
