Hello and welcome to HCM,
A bump in the outer side of vaginal lip can be a boil, folliculitis or any other infectious lesion of skin.
Bleeding from the bump could follow its rupture.
A clinical assessment of the region is required.
There could be infection of the open wound.
Thus, dressing of the open wound is required to prevent re-infection of the wound.
thus, consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment and dressing of the wound.
Oral antibiotic may also be required.

Thanks and take care
