large lump
last thurs nite a very large lump came up just inside my vigina. the whole area was swollen and very painful. i seen my gp on friday morn,who just gave me an antobiotic. some swelling has gone down,but has left some brusing. the lump is still there and i find it hard to walk or sit down. i also recently have been tested for STI' s which were all negitive.thank god. this looks like a cyst. should i go to A& E ?
Inside the vagina we have barthalin glads. These glads secret small amounts of fluid. I have heard we women can get berthalin cysts at the glad sight. I would think they could also get infected. If the lump has not gone away with antibiotics, it may been then a cyst only. If the cyst remains and is painful still, I would consult with your GYN again for a follow-up.
