Can be swollen Bartholin's gland.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
A lump like swollen gland on the vaginal wall can be a bartholin's gland.
If it is not paining then it is not yet infected. Avoid touching the area and try to keep the area clean. The itching ion the area is suggestive of a yeast infection. You can take fluconazole and insert clotrimazole pessary and see if it helps.
This is not related to a urinary infection. So norflox is not likely to help. Hot compress in the area can help in case the swelling is painful.
Hope this answer is helpful.
Further follow up queries are welcome.
Regards.
