Hello doctors! It all started with a bright yellow discharge that had a foul odor. Almost a week later, I felt pain and called the nurse to see what it could be. They performed a urinalysis and it came back negative. The pain got worst for a few days. I could barely walk, sit, or do daily activites. I researched my symptoms and figured it to be a Bartholin's abscess. I took two to four baths a day. One day, the pain was so bad I did not want to get out of bed. I sat down to eat and felt as if I was wet. I went to the bathroom and checked..it drained on its own. Thank goodness! Although I still have a cyst, I would like to know if foul odor has to do with the cyst. Should there be any foul odor? I think the foul odor is abnormal.
