I have a lump near vaginal entrance can this be bartholin cyst
hi thanks for the query according to your description the lump you mentioned could be bartholin cyst as you are thinking usually it occurs due to the blockage of bartholin duct small cyst may not cause any problem but when a size increases or the cyst gets infected that can lead to formation of abscess in that case you may experience pain and discomfort as per as possible better to get examined by your gynecologist to find out the actual nature of the cyst sometimes antibiotics are sufficient to decrease the size of the cyst if it gets infected and increases in size you may need to go for minor surgical procedures like incision and drainage or marsupialization if you want relief now before going to your doctor you can take sit bath with lukewarm water and 10 to 15 my of betadine solution twice a day with 10 minutes duration this will help in reducing the pain and size of cyst take care
