Patient's question:
The other day, while getting a thorough check-up at the hospital, I found out I have a problem with a Bartholin's cyst. I'd like to ask if there are any good methods to reduce swelling? It really hurts, and it's very inconvenient to live with.Doctor's answer:
Patients with large vestibular gland cysts can be treated with Chinese herbal sitz baths, which can accelerate the resolution and subsidence of inflammation and effectively prevent further spread of the inflammation. Chinese herbal sitz baths can play a more significant role in treatment, helping to stabilize local pain or redness. It is necessary to maintain local skin cleanliness and dryness at all times, and to avoid scratching with hands as much as possible. During the treatment period, it is best to avoid spicy and irritating foods.
