Big bump on vagina lip.

About two days ago I saw a red bump developing on the outside of my vagina lip, then within the next day it got much bigger and harder, then this morning I wake up and the bump has gotten semi smaller and softer almost feeling like a blister- then at school it ended up popping I guess and oosing some clear fluid. It's very sore and hurts. I do currently have a yeast infection and have been taking antibiotics for it for the past four days so I'm not sure if that triggered it? I'd like to post a picture of it so someone can say if it looks like any certain thing but I'm not sure how. Please help me.

    That kind of sounds like genital Herpes. Especially because of the color, how long it lasted, and the stages the bump went through. I suggest you go to a gynecologist and check that out.

    Don't worry !  What you are describing is almost certainly a hair follicle infection. The hair sometimes trapped under the skin, becomes infected and inflamed. Just make sure that you keep yourself clean down there through regular washing using liquid soap and water. Avoid wearing nylon underwear for a while and dont use vaginal sprays etc.  If that doesn't sort it then a visit to your GP is advised.

      Thank you so much!!!

      Today it is extremely better- not red, swollen, not seeping anything, not even sore- just a little soft. The bump is still visible but so much more incredibly small I'm shocked ! Thank you again.

    It could be herpes, is it only one blister? Herpes can also trigger to give you yeast infections
