Semi Hard Lump In Inner Vagina, Painful, Itchy. Taking Silica Tablets. Should I Be Worried?
Hi i have a semi hard lump in my inner vagina area near opening. Was painful for a few days but now has stopped. And lump has got slighty smaller. Today its a little itchy.. i have read a bit about bartholin cysts and its def in this area. I have been using a warm compress and bough silica tabs which i think may have helped. I cant get dr appt due to being away from home. Should i be worried?

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
You can have bartholin cyst.
Now if you are pain free, there is no treatment required.
However you should be more vigilant about your local hygiene, because once it gets converted into bartholin abscess due to recurrent infection incision & drainage will be mandatory.
Take care
