Not related but i no theres more people on this forum then others ive posted this question in!

Im 36 weeks pregnant and for ages now ive had this open hole just inside my hoohaa. it leaks foul smelling pale yellow puss. i no its an open abcsess but why wont it stop leaking? or why wont it clear up? Ive seen a doctor and she said its ontop of a varicose vein and it should clear up after birth... but to be honest i dont want this foul puss leaking out of me along with the discharge from pregnancy... I constantly feel dirty and disgusting and  Its driving me nuts.  anyone no what is going on or why it wont stop producing this puss???? Help!!!

I had a clogged gland with first pregnancy and midwife said to try a sitz bath and some domeboro powder which you can get the powder at a pharmacy off the shelf. But you might have to ask the midwife or Dr for a sitz bath. Or you could put hot water as hot as you can stand it in a bath tub with the powder and try that it fixed mine. Just use one packet twice.daily for 20-30 minutes.

Bartholin Abscess Drainage
emedicine.medscape.com/article/80260-overview
Feb 27, 2012 – Bartholin Abscess Drainage. Bartholin abscesses and cysts account for 2% of all gynecological visits per year.

If its the cause of 2% of visits....it should be fairly common?

Im sorry your going threw that but personally I have zero knowledge as well. The best advice I can give it google a.nd see if u can find any help and maybe get a second opinion from another doctor.
