I have a red, painful bump on my labia minora that has been getting worse over the past week. It's sometimes itchy and has a dot in the middle, like it's about to burst. I may have accidentally touched my labia after applying an insect repelling lotion. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I had the old Mirena coil removed and a new one fitted 7 days ago. I am experiencing heavy bleeding but not painful bleeding. I am due to go on holiday and want to know if it is safe to use additional progesterone (5mg 3 times daily) while on holiday. What do you suggest and is this normal?
