Hard painful lump

Hi, I'm a 22 female and a couple of days ago I noticed a hard lump under my skin roughly an inch from my bikini line right under my pubic hair, I know for a fact its not an ingrown hair, its slightly painful too. Its around the size on a one penny piece, I'm worried about it because it kinda came out of no where. I doubt its a STI since I'm a Lesbian and been with my g/f for 8 months now. Does anyone have any idea what this could be??

Sounds like some kind of cyst.  I'd go have it checked.
