If there are pus bumps in the vagina after intercourse, should I go to the clinic to get an anti-inflammatory injection?

Patient's question:

Just finished a soft tube procedure for painless abortion at a private gynecology hospital. They cut a abscess near the vagina and stitched it with 3 stitches, also removed a cervical polyp. I've been given antibiotics for almost a day. Can I get antibiotics at a clinic?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: According to your description, you may have developed a Bartholin's gland cyst. A Bartholin's gland cyst is formed due to the obstruction of the Bartholin's gland duct, leading to the accumulation of secretions. After acute inflammation subsides, duct blockage occurs, and secretions cannot be expelled, gradually turning into clear fluid to form a cyst. Sometimes, thick mucus in the gland lumen or congenital duct narrowing can also cause poor drainage and lead to cyst formation. If secondary infection occurs, it may develop into an abscess with recurrent attacks.
Recommendation: Further tests such as blood tests should be conducted at the hospital. If inflammation is present, anti-inflammatory treatment is recommended to avoid delaying the condition.
