Hello, bartholinitis is an inflammation of the Bartholin's glands caused by various pathogens. If Bartholinitis is not treated promptly, it can lead to acute suppurative inflammation, which then becomes a Bartholin's gland abscess.Medical Advice: Based on your current condition, it is likely a Bartholin's gland abscess. Generally, after the abscess forms, it needs to be drained through incision and a fistula may be created. Therefore, your case requires surgery, which will be performed under anesthesia.
