Brief Answer:
It is most probably a bartholin cyst.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I'm sorry for the delay in my response.

I have seen your attached pictures and in my opinions it is most probably a bartholin gland cyst.

Treatment of cyst depends upon it's symptoms.

-Sitz bath is helpful in its drainage.
-Sometimes it requires surgical drainage by the doctor, if it becomes enlarged and cause symptoms.
-Antibiotics and pain killer required, when it becomes infected.

In your case as it is not having any symptoms sitz bath is helpful.

Maintain the area XXXXXXX dry and use cotton undergarments.

Hope it is useful.

Regards
