General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello. By the symptoms you describe I can say it could be a Bartolino abscess, it is caused after an obstruction of the little channels that this glands use to drain causing pain and gets inflamed, it may not be infected yet but it can be at any time. You should see your gynecologist and meanwhile use warm baths 4 times per day.
