Brown discharge after bartholin abscess
I had bartholin abscess in April 2023 had drainage. It got cured but after 2-3months I noticed slightly blood in white discharge and it become more frequent after more after any physical activity. Taking antibiotics stops discharge but return after few days if medicine is stopped  now it's regular(3months) with no pain and slight swelling. Culture of discharge is done and it's antibiotic resistance having e coil bacteria. Gynac said I need cyst removal surgery because discharge might be coming from there but I have no problem with that and I don't want surgery. Any suggestions ?

Sometimes it happens that even after bartholin cyst removal there could be some remnant left or it may reoccur… so if your gyanc is saying so you should listen to her.

If the bloody discharge is definitely coming from the bartholin cyst then surgery is recommended.. but usually in chronic cases with no pain n mild swelling without any pus point or opening in the cyst discharge doesn't occur.. so need to do examination...

Difficult to tell without examination... But since you again have swelling better to go for surgery.....
