Bartholin Cyst Inflammed ,swollen, On Polysporin Twice A Day For 10 Days. Any Other Suggestion?

Hi,

I have a small bartholin cyst that appears to be inflamed and a little swollen. It doesn't hurt and I have no fever and no other symptoms. I have been treating it with warm compresses and Polysporin twice a day, but it still looks the same. My Dr's appt is only 10 days from now and I am a little concerned about waiting so long. Is there anything else over the counter that I can use to treat it while I wait for my appt.?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Homeopath 's  Response
Hello Dina,
Thank you for posting your query through Healthcare magic.
I am a Homoeopath and my answer may appear strange for you.
Is it the first instance you are getting it or you had several episodes of bartholin cysts in the past ? If you had them earlier, I hope they got resolved by themselves. In that case why don't you wait for the cyst to get resolved by itself? If they got resolved by themselves, it means, your body is healthy enough and knows how to resolve it even at this instance.
If this is the first instance you got one and no past history, then also it is now in a compromised state. Because there is no much hurting and no fever at all. But if it is because of the Polysporin, then it is a suppression of the natural inflammatory process and that may be why it does not hurt. In that case, there is more chance of recurrences in future.
Body needs a constitutional support to improve the immunity and control the inflammation. This constitutional support is best done by Homoeopathic treatment. But if you are taking Homoeopathic method, you should stop applying Polysporin externally. Then by the right constitutional method of Homoeopathic treatment, not only the present cyst will be cured with disappearance of the swelling but also you will develop immunity so that no occurrences of bartholin cysts will take place in future.
Therefore you are advised to approach an expert Homoeopath or to get back to me with your details through the premium follow up question facility of Healthcare magic.
With Best Wishes,
