I have a Bartholin gland cyst that has already been marsupialised as of two weeks ago. My stitches have yet to dissolve, and I still feel a small lump there. I was on the substitute for Bactrim, but a week after the marsupialization, she put me on the substitute for Augmentin. I have approximately 10 pills left, ordered to take them twice a day, and I have yet to notice a change. Will it ever go away, or should I do another marsupialization?
Welcome to Chat Doctor. 1. Generally post procedure status of the cyst - might show some edema which looks like a cyst, as It's still earl post procedure.2. The other possible cause could be reoccurrence of the cyst again - which is also possible in few cases.3. In case of reoccurrence - you need to wait till the stitches heal - and further monitor and plan for a minor surgical procedure.4. Antibiotis are generally indicated after any procedure for better healing and as anti-infective.5. So at this moment - you need to take medication and let the area get healed first, then needs examination again after few weeks - if required a repeat procedure or minor surgery. Good luck.
