I have a pea sized bump on the left side of my vagina help!

i was told this was either an ingrown hair or a cyst so I did what it said and sat in a hot bath and tried to let it pop but nothing happened so I looked again and was told to puncture it slightly with a needle so I did and after squeezing it a while it finally started to drain but the problem is it stopped after a while and there was still a pretty big bump left so I tried to squeeze and puncture it one or two more times but nothing happened so I got out of the bath and looked at it and it was a little purple from one of the punctured places which I assumed was because I was squeezing it a lot so I left it but I am worried I did something wrong because the bump is still there even though I already drained what I thought was most or all of it. I am not comfortable talking to my parents about this and I am a virgin so I know it's not an std or anything of that sort. Please help if you know!:)

Yes puss came out and I thought that meant it worked but there is still a bump, did your bump hurt after you drained it sill because mine dose I'm hoping if I leave it alone a bit longer it will go away thanks for the info!

It could be that its swollen  from you squeezing it so much. What came out of it? Puss? I once had a bump but it ended up being staph infection and I also drained it myself and the bump stayed for a few days and then went away.
