Doctor's answer:
Hello, the symptoms and location you described are mostly considered to be Bartholinitis. It is recommended that you maintain local cleanliness and hygiene, take warm sitz baths twice a day, and take oral antibiotics. If the pain worsens and the lump enlarges to form an abscess, it may require incision and drainage. It is advised that you visit a hospital for examination to determine the condition. Once diagnosed, symptomatic treatment can be administered. In the meantime, you can use Fuyinjie wash liquid for cleaning. Levofloxacin tablets can be used, along with erythromycin ophthalmic ointment applied to the affected area. Manganese acid methyl powder can be dissolved in water to clean the vulva. If it has already ruptured with pus and bleeding, you may need to go to the hospital for injections, such as levofloxacin hydrochloride and tinidazole injections.
