Hi ladies so a few days ago i noticed a pea sized lump on my la is minors near top of vagina , over the past few days it has got bigger and bigger snd has become very painful . Please help , I’m going to try snd get a doctors appointment tomorrow but my boss said if I have another day off I’m sacked but I’m in so much pain ! I’m pretty sure it’s a blocked hair follicle I’ll most likely be given antibiotics . Please help

Sounds like a boil type thing. Can you pop it?

Take some mega painkillers to keep you at work as it's hot worth losing a job over. Although your boss sounds awful.

Do you have a minor illness facility that sees patients out of hours? I'm not sure your boss can say that to you. How much time have you had off?

If you think it's a hair follicle, wash the area and see if you can squeeze anything out. Bit vile but I have had it before and that's what I did.
