A member asked:

I'm having very painful intercourse and i am concerned..also, there's swelling on one side of my vagina that won't go down. the pain is out and inside?

Exam: you should see a gynecologist for an exam. The swelling could represent an abcess, a bartholion gland cyst, infection, or malignancy.
