Lump on Vulva

A couple days ago I discovered a pea sized lump on my vulva. It is completely painless, relatively firm and moves around a little when I touch it. It's located at the very bottom of my vaginal opening. Does this look like a Bartholin's Cyst? It looks to low to me to be a Bartholin's? I'm absolutely freaked out that its vulvar cancer even though I'm young (24) and knkw its rare. A bit of background -- I gave birth one year ago. I developed a Bartholin's cyst that turned into an abscess one week after I gave birth so I have had one before and this doesn't feel like the one I had after giving birth even though the current lump is on the same side and relatively same location as the one I had after giving birth a year ago. What could this be? If this doesnt resolve relatively soon I will be going to see my doctor as soon as possible. The pandemic puts a curveball in everything and I'm super nervous to go to a doctors office right now!
