Can be a urethral carbuncle

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Lump above the clitoral region can be of infectious pathology, can be a pus filled cavity, or can be a urethral carbuncle.
All these are painful and gradually increase in size.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist for proper examination and get antibiotics accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
