Patient's question:
A small bump has grown at the vaginal opening, and it hurts when touched. Urination also hurts. What could be the reason, and what should be done?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the symptoms you described may be a Bartholin's gland cyst. The symptoms include redness, swelling, hardness, pain, burning sensation, tenderness upon touch, pain during urination, difficulty walking, and sometimes difficulty with urination and defecation.Advice: Treatment includes cyst drainage and cyst removal. Drainage is suitable for larger and repeatedly acute recurring cysts; removal is suitable for infected cysts. For larger cysts, CO2 laser treatment is performed at the lowest point.
