Patient's question:
A lump has grown next to the labia majora. It doesn't hurt or itch, and it doesn't cause any discomfort when walking. I visited two hospitals, and both said it was a Bartholin's gland cyst. But I don't think it feels right. When I touch the lump, it feels like it has a lump, but when I'm not touching it, it feels normal, as if there's no lump. If it were a gland cyst, it would hurt and have pus! Also, when I touch the lump, it moves around like a piece of flesh, and there's no sense of pus inside. Moreover, it hasn't grown since it appeared over half a month ago, and it still hasn't caused any discomfort. I don't know what it is.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 moist 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.
