Hi, I have been diagnosed with a bartholin absess on my vagina, I have been put on antibiotics (yesterday) but today have noticed four small black spots coming up around the swollen area and there seems to be a scab, it is very swollen and i am in alot of pain, is this normal?
HelloWelcome to ChatDoctorAs you are diagnosed with Catholics abscess, Black spots are the points of maximum pressure inside the abscess. It is the sign of impending rupture of the abscess at these points. If it ruptures clean the affected area toughly. Continue full course of antibiotics. Hope you are happy with the answer. Thank you
