Im a 16 year old female at about 57. I weigh 132  pounds and have no significant medical history that would relate to this problem. I noticed a small lump on the right side of my perineal area (the front) about three months ago. Its never bothered me before and I assumed it was either acne or a scab or scar from shaving. About a week ago I was able to pop it, and a small amount of puss did exit from it. Since then it has not only returned, but seems to have doubled in size. It is a flat mass lying under the skin... It doesnt hurt but it is uncomfortable because my underwear is pressing right into the middle of it when I sit or walk. It is slightly discolored, a pinkish color, though that may just be from my underwear agitating it. My worry was that this could be something cancerous - upon researching I deduced it could either be a bartholin cyst or perhaps an infection? Or I may just be completely over-estimating this and perhaps its just a pimple of some sort. Someone please set my mind at ease... Its worrying me intensely.
Hi, From history it seems that as this lump is since long there is possibility of having Bartholdi gland cyst. There might be having some infection as well. Consult GAEC and get examined. If Bartholdi gland cyst is there, it should be incised witChatDoctorplete removal of sac. Never try to prick it as it might spread the infection. Ok and take care.
