How to treat breast gland cysts during lactation

Patient's question:

The day before yesterday, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor prescribed Cephalexin and sodium oxybate for intravenous drip, which I received for three days. However, the lump is still hard and hasn't improved. Today, I have mild pain when walking, and it hurts when I press it. On the day of the check-up, the doctor prescribed Amoxicillin dispersible tablets and told me not to get injections but to take the medication orally. Can I take it? Will it affect the baby? I went to the hospital again today, and the doctor suggested surgery. I don't want to have surgery because the baby is still young and I need to breastfeed and take care of the baby. Can I take Amoxicillin dispersible tablets? Will it affect the baby? I urgently need to ask the doctor how to treat and control the lump from expanding. Please help me, doctor! Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

The formation of Bartholin's gland cyst is mainly due to the blockage of the Bartholin's gland opening, leading to the accumulation of secretions and the formation of a cystic mass. As long as there is no infection or enlargement, it generally does not affect fertility or daily life.
Advice: It is recommended to apply a warm local wet compress with magnesium sulfate solution daily. If there is enlargement or pain, it is best to undergo standardized surgical treatment, such as a Bartholin's gland fistulostomy, which can help maintain the function of the Bartholin's gland after the procedure.
