That : That could be several different things. Sometimes, if a patient shaves, then a hair follicle can get infected, this is called folliculitis. Another possibility is called Bartholin's abscess, when the glands of the labia (the outer portion of the vagina) get infected. Other infections can also cause this such as staph. Please have a complete gynecological infection to get this checked. If you develop increased pain or fever then you must be seen as an emergency.

See a GYN MD: Any "bump" that isn't a normal part of your anatomy(genitals) should be a source of concern to you especially if it is uncomfortable. See a GYN MD for a "sight analysis".
