I have had a cyst for several years, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I have had a cyst for several years, and it hasn't been this severe every year. It first appeared on the Spring Festival of 2004 and hasn't healed yet. It keeps coming back and forth, causing me a lot of pain.
First follow-up question: Doctor, the cyst I mentioned is what the common people call (a boil, a carbuncle).
Second follow-up question: Sorry, doctor, I need to add one more thing. I have also had surgery before, and it took a long time to recover.

Doctor's answer:

Cysts are benign lesions and have little impact on the body. They can be left untreated or managed with traditional Chinese medicine. Generally, there are no specific medications for them. If necessary, surgical removal can be considered. Bartholin's cysts are primarily caused by gynecological inflammation leading to obstruction of the Bartholin's gland ducts, ultimately resulting in the formation of Bartholin's cysts. If this treatment is not effective with medication, surgical intervention may be necessary. You can first try topical medication. You can try grinding tetracycline and mixing it with water to apply it. This usually works, but if it still doesn't improve, surgery may be the only option.
