I've had this really painful pimple on my vaginal lip for about a week now, and it has pus. Any advice on what I should do?

It sounds like you may have a painful cyst or abscess, possibly a Bartholin's gland cyst, which can become infected and filled with pus. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider for an evaluation and potential drainage if necessary, and to avoid squeezing or irritating it further in the meantime.

I'm a bit worried because I had sex with two different people at different times, and neither time we used condoms. Could this lead to any problems, even if it's not something I do regularly?

Yes always you use barriers as you are unaware of partner's health status .
