HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Based on the symptoms mentioned, it is possible that you may have a cyst in the vaginal area.
A cyst is a fluid filled sac that can sometimes become infection or inflamed, causing pain.
It would be best to see your doctor for an assessment. Imaging may be needed.
Treatment may involve incision of the area and the use of a course of antibiotics along with pain medication.
I hope this helps
