What Causes A Painful Bump On The Labia Majora?

Hello, I had a small but painful bump on my labia majora for months. Eventually (a month or two ago) it got larger and pop but the bump was still there. I tried to pop it again after showers, pus would come it but no hair (I assumed it was an ingrown hair). This past week the bump has become increasingly larger, red, and sensitive. It s uncomfortable when I walk. Today it burst and there was quite a bit of blood and some pus. I assumed it would be go away but it just filled again with to the large size it was. I m afraid it s infected or will become so. And I don t know how to prevent that given the location. Thank you
