I'm afraid we can't diagnose you but the chances are that you may have a Bartholin's cyst. This is a harmless non-cancerous cyst. You can read more about Bartholin's cysts here.
I think the best thing to do would be to make an appointment to see your GP to get checked out just be on the safe side. Because of the current pandemic, you may be offered a telephone appointment initially with your doctor. If they feel they need to see you, they can offer you a face to face appointment.
Please get back to us if you need any more information or support. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
