Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The lump adjacent to the vagina is most likely a Bartholin's gland abscess or cyst. Other causes are swollen lymph node, lipoma. If the pain is severe, then it is better to go to the ER for proper examination and treatment accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
