Bump on the vagina?

ive noticed a farely small bump on my right inner lip and its really hard but its not red its the same color as my skin. ive had sex with my ex of 2 yrs but he was a virgin and so was i, so i dont think it could be herpes or std's unless he cheated when we were together or was born with it and didnt tell me but i havnt had sex in 6months and it just recently appeared on tuesday morning and it hurts really bad.
What could this be? im thinking a boil or cyst maybe cancer but i hope it isnt.

I would guess a Bartholin's cyst, since it's not red or *****.  It is extremely unlikely to be cancer, given your age.  But BluCrystal is right, you'll have to see an ob/gyn or your GP to find out for sure.  You can soak it in a warm bath or with a warm washcloth, which might help it drain (and at worst will do nothing).

The only sure way to find out what it is is to see a gyn about it.  Make an appt so you can get treated and not have to worry about it anymore.  Blessings - Blu
