    I had a small flesh colored lump. Felt like a hard pea. Shape and size of a pea also. I think i put warm compress on it,anyway,it disappeared on its own in a few days. Xx

      Hi,i got nervous,but then I did use google and it calmed me down. Thats why I tryed the compresses. Just if you try them,make sure they arent too hot. Xx

    Probably a Bartholins cyst which is just a gland that supplies the normal secretions that has been blocked.......lots of discussions on here about them They are not harmful but are a nuisance and can get painful and full of pus.   As Lee has suggested a warm to hot compress can help but if it gets large you may need antibiotics. If they recur and are a nuisance to you they can be removed surgically.

      Thank you marina Dee for your input to my problem , yes as I said before no colour or even not painful just a lump that I can feel when I touch it , which is on my mind all the time at the moment can help but worry ,, bit of a worry wart lately .
