Bartholine cyst
Hi, I have Bartholine cyst from a year and never noticed as it was not paining and not noticable at all.
Recently I consulted a doctor and she gave some medicine and su-mag but it did not worked at all. But now swelling got increased and facing discomfort in walking as well but no pain.
Consulted another doctor and she suggested surgery to remove that sack, i am sexually inactive so a little worried about surgery. Is there any way for treating this bartholine cyst apart from surgery?

When the Bartholin glands gets obstructed the fluid stays behind and forms a cyst.since you have no pain or pus discharge the cyst is clear but it has high chances of getting infected if you were sexually active. Total surgical removal of the cyst is recommended.

Bartholin cyst should be removed en masse. If it is drained or marsupialization done, it has a tendency to recur. So go for complete enucleation.
