Hi,
Abscess in labia is most probably a Bartholin's cyst which is a recurring condition. Marsupialization a surgery for this abscess will reduce the recurrence rate. Have a second opinion with your doctor and decide upon this.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
