Hello,
From your symptoms,it looks like a Bartholin's cyst. There are glands in the vaginal lips called Bartholin’s glands. These can become painful and swollen, and an abscess can form. This often causes blockage in the main duct from the gland, and a cyst develops. This is felt as a painless, hard swelling.In such cases, antibiotics may be helpful, or surgical treatment might be required.
Other possibilities are sebaceous cysts (accumulations of secretions that can occur Fanywhere on the skin or mucosal surfaces), lipomas (fatty deposits) ,fibromas (fibrous tissue deposits) or viral warts(small raised pimples to a mass of large, cauliflower-like growths. The virus that causes them is passed on during sex).
An examination by a gynecologist will be the best as it is only after an examination that it will become clear what the swellings that you have noticed are due to.
I hope that helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards

tenx for the answer... bet the color is red.. even if i didnt put vinegar on it.. is it normal to feel bumpy like structure when i insert my finger on my vagina? tenx
Okay I am taking a class and just learned about genital warts. I read somewhere that if you take a kleenax and put vinegar on it and then hold it on the bump, if it turns red it may be genital warts. Try this and if it turns red then go to the doctor. I would go either way just to make sure.
