Patient's question:
A cyst about 5cm in size has grown on the left side of the vagina. It was once treated in 2005, and later ruptured and was cleaned by myself. In November 2007, I had an abortion, but it recurred afterward~! I have been diagnosed multiple times, but the doctor said it could be surgically treated or left untreated, just to pay more attention to diet and lifestyle. However, I have been experiencing increased vaginal discharge with a slight odor, sometimes with a curd-like texture~! In November 2007, I had an abortion, but it recurred afterward~Doctor's answer:
You have had a history of recurrent treatment for Bartholin's gland cyst, but it has never been completely cured. Suggestions: Bartholin's gland cyst can be temporarily left untreated as long as it does not become infected. If it becomes infected, anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary. If it forms an abscess, it needs to be incised and drained. If you want a complete cure, cyst removal surgery may be required.Your abnormal discharge symptoms are indicative of vaginitis. I recommend that you undergo a gynecological examination to confirm whether vaginitis is present and to determine its type. Once the type of vaginitis is accurately diagnosed, more effective treatment can be administered. On a daily basis, you should pay attention to external genital hygiene before and after sexual activity.
