Doctor's answer:

Hello, your condition is preliminarily considered to be a Bartholin's gland cyst. Smaller cysts should be monitored regularly. The main treatment for preventing infection is sitz baths with a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution. Larger cysts should undergo cystostomy or cystectomy. Before surgery, sitz baths with a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution should be used. After surgery, oral antibiotics should be the primary treatment. The external genital area should be kept clean and hygienic. Avoid wearing synthetic underwear, change underwear frequently, and prevent contamination from vaginal secretions, urine, and feces. Since I cannot see your specific condition, I recommend that you visit a regular hospital for examination and symptomatic treatment. Wishing you good health!
