Not in a place that I can take a picture. I have had occasional cysts like infections before. This feels more firm. Doesn't feel like it is filled.

All infections need not be fluid filled .

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX

All infections need not be fluid filled. Other possible causes could be a wart or a tumour. If you cannot get a picture, I will suggest you visit a gynecologist and discuss about performing a biopsy. That should help us sort the condition. You can get back to me with the reports.
I urge you to see the doctor as its wrong to guess and start treatment blindly. And I do not want you to ignore in view of multiple differential diagnosis.
