Vaginal Lumps

I noticed two bumps, one on each side of the upper vulva, slightly smaller than a pea. ( I hope I have the right term.)  I just noticed them last week.  After researching online, I thought they might be cysts.  I did reading and found that many people tried warm baths, trying to slowly bring liquid to a head.  BAD move.  I only did that with one and now it much larger than the other, and very tender and sore, yet hard.  I am scheduled to leave for a cruise tomorrow.  Is this something I should be concerned about?

I don't seem to be able to create my own post in this forum, but I'd like a doctor to respond to this so here goes.

I have a bump on my outer labia minora near the opening of my vagina. I noticed it back in November, but it could have been there for longer. It isn't very noticable, but the area gets a dull pain on occassion. I am pregnant and recently went to the obgyn for a full pelvic exam. I had a normal pap smear and I even mentioned it to the doctor. She took a look and said that it doesn't look like anything out of the ordinary. I had a baby about a year ago and was wondering if this is a normal vaginal change? If so, what is it? Even though the gyn said everything checks out, I'm still concerned because it hurts on occassion and looks different from the rest of my vagina. Could you tell me what this could be, given that the gyn said it wasn't anything out of the ordinary and that my pelvic went fine?
I would greatly appreciate that, thanks!

Hi!
I'm sorry for the delay in the answer (I have had some medical problems recently) If you were my patient, I would advise you that I am concerned about two different possibilities, the first would be in grown hair follicles.  These can commonly result from shaving in that area.  They are infected hairs and will develop lesions similar to large pimples.  Usually they get better on their own, but sometimes they need to be drained and/or antibiotic may be prescribed.
The other concern would be a primary outbreak of herpes.
I would need to see the lesions to help make the diagnosis.
I hope this was of some use to you!
OH and don't start your birth control late--start it WITH your period or it can actually trigger ovulation.
Good luck!
