Welcome to health care magic.
1.The possible cause in this case could be nabothian cyst. Nabothian cysts are seen in the cervical region.
2.This cysts are formed after any cervical infection.
3.As your previous smear test confirms the possible infection or early changes of malignancy.
4.BEst way get an ultrasound examination of pelvis trans abdominal and trans vaginal route to evaluate any mass or cystic lesion, if any mass found - an FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology for evaluation of lesions.
5.Finally if money is not an issue - MRI pelvis is excellent or anatomical delineation. Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query.
Any thing to ask do not hesitate. Thank you.
