How to treat a lump on the vulva

People are more concerned about the health of the genitals, and genital problems are always a disease phenomenon that women cannot avoid, especially women with weaker bodies. Their resistance to diseases is very limited, which often makes it easy for gynecological diseases to attack the body. Gynecological diseases such as a lump on the vulva are commonplace for women. So, how to treat a lump on the vulva? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

Symptoms of Bartholin's gland abscess include painful and swollen labia; pain and a fluctuating mass in the lower and outer areas of the vaginal vestibule; and local fever and erythema.

The cystic mass is located below the posterior part of the labia majora and protrudes toward the outside of the labia majora. The disease is usually unilateral but can also be bilateral. There may be no symptoms for a long time and it is often discovered during a gynecological examination. The cyst grows slowly and is usually no larger than an egg. Small cysts are oval or fusiform. Larger cysts can cause swelling of the vulva and discomfort during sexual intercourse. Examination revealed that the lump occupied the middle and lower 1/3 of the entire labia majora, the labia minora were completely flattened, and the vaginal opening was pushed to the healthy side. When a Bartholin's gland cyst becomes infected, it may form an abscess, and repeated infection may cause the cyst to expand.
