Lump outside vagina

I had some pain just out side of my vagina, when I was in bath I checked and found a lump hurts when I touch and squeeze it. Anyone know what it could be??

Could also be an abscess, warm compresses may help relieve that. If it doesn't subside than your family doc may lance and drain it. You will usually feel instant relief after that.

It could be an infected Bartholin's gland. If so, soaking in a hot bath could help it drain. Good luck.
