Bump on vagina lip

I'm a 18 year old girl and today I noticed a small, red bump on the lip of my vagina, on the right side. I think it might me be from my jeans/underwear rubbing against my vagina. But while looking on this site i got a little scared because I just had sex on the 22 and I'm thinking it could be something else. It only hurts when I touch it. Could someone please help me?

It could be from a number of things, like irritation making a bump appear from swelling, from shaving(ingrown hair), a pimple/clogged pore, infection, cyst, etc. If the bump does not go away on it's own in a week or so, make a doctor's appointment to have it looked at. Hope it goes well.

I just had a hot rag on it for awhile and it doesn't hurt could it possibly be for me shaving?
