Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. What is a Bartholin's cyst?Doctor's answer:
Hello, Bartholin's gland cyst is formed due to local inflammation leading to the blockage of Bartholin's gland ducts, causing secretions to accumulate. After acute inflammation subsides, duct blockage prevents secretions from being expelled, resulting in a cyst. Generally, it is asymptomatic, but if the cyst is large, it may cause a feeling of fullness or discomfort in the external genitalia or sexual intercourse discomfort. Gynecological examination shows that cysts are usually unilateral but can also be bilateral, and they are often oval-shaped. The surgical procedure for draining Bartholin's gland cyst is effective. After surgery, you need to stay in the hospital for three to five days for recovery, and you can be discharged later. Always maintain local cleanliness and hygiene.
