Unsure: It is possible to have dilated blood vessels on or in the labia - they would be called vulvar varicosities and would be similar to hemorrhoids,

Unlikely hemorrhoid: Any bump on your vagina is unlikely to be related to a hemorrhoid ..you should have it examined by a primary care physician or gynecologist

Many possibilities: it could be a cyst in the skin or bartholins gland . it could be a vulvar varicosities , it could be a mole or other skin condition . There are many possibilities . The only way to know for sure is to see a doctor and have it checked out.
