Cysts?

Yesterday after my shower i noticed some sort of hard, small lump in my left labia. I think it might be a cyst but i've never had them down there except now. so far i don't think it's gotten worse, no discharge and it doesn't really hurt that much; hurts just as much as a cyst really.
I'm not sexually active and i've never had sexual health problems before.

it's not really that near the vagina opening, it's like on the edge of my outer labia.
And thanks for the advice, i'll check it out

If the lump is below the vaginal opening, toward the bottom, and off to one side, then it's probably a "Bartholin's cyst". Google it, check out the images, and you can learn what to expect. Good luck.

Exactly where is it at??? Is it near the opening to your vagina??? I am asking because I have had one before and it turned out to be a big problem!!!
