Please suggest home remedies for Bartholin cysts.

[Kinzee]

Hello, I am 24 years old. I observed Bartholin cysts. A Bartholin cyst develops when a blockage occurs in a Bartholin gland in the vagina. This blockage causes a lump that can cause irritation and pain during walking, sitting, or having sex. Bartholin cysts can resolve on their own over time. I talked to my doctor he said it will resolve on its own over time but I would like to know some home remedies to cure it. Please suggest home remedies for Bartholin cysts.

@kinzee Hello, It is not uncommon for a duct from the gland to get blocked, causing fluid to build up in the gland, which results in swelling. It typically occurs on one side of the vagina. A Bartholin cyst is commonly painless, however, some people may experience some tenderness in the area. Here are some remedies- Soaking in a few inches of warm water and taking over-the-counter painkillers. You could try getting the cyst to ‘pop’ by sitting on a hot water bottle but make sure it is wrapped in a muslin cloth or tea towel to avoid burning yourself. Please consult a doctor before trying anything. Thanks!
