Painful after treatment for gynecological cysts

Patient's question:

In July 2012, a Bartholin's cyst developed on the left labia. After medication and intravenous fluids, the cyst stopped hurting and began to shrink. Later, after examination by the doctor, it was determined that the remaining cyst could be cured by aspiration with a syringe. In November 2012, at the hospital, a tube of brown blood was aspirated from the middle of the left labia, followed by the injection of a tube of alcohol. Since then, pain and swelling have developed from the middle of the left labia to the lower part, becoming unbearable. During this period, intravenous antibiotics were administered but showed no improvement. Currently, the swollen area is extremely painful, walking is difficult, and there is a trembling pain in the groin area.

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to go to the gynecology outpatient department of the hospital, have the abscess incised, place a drainage tube, drain the pus and blood, and allow the wound to heal from the inside out. It is necessary to change the dressing daily. At the same time, it is recommended to combine antibiotic treatment. If possible, potassium permanganate sitz bath can be used, with each session lasting 20 minutes.
