Accepted Answer

Consult: with a GYN or Urologist for proper evaluation and treatment recommendations.

Question 2

what are home remedies for skene's gland cysts?

Accepted Answer

I'm afraid of none...: A stable small cyst may leave it alone; the one causing discomfort needs surgical excision. There is no remedy for it. More? Seek professional evaluation and counseling timely.

Question 3

can serrapeptase be an effective home remedy for skene's gland cysts or bartholin's cysts? how long would it take to see a noticeable difference?

Accepted Answer

Experimental? : I'm not familiar with serrapeptase, but it appears to be experimental compared with home remedies &amp; surgical intervention.

Question 4

hello. i've experience recently a white tiny bump around the urethra.. its itchy and it does not hurt when i pee. could it be a skene gland cyst?

Accepted Answer

Maybe-Check this out: Skene duct cysts develop next  to the distal urethra, sometimes causing perineal discharge, dyspareunia, urinary obstruction, or abscess formation. So it's possible. You should have an exam by your gynecologist to be on the safe side.

Question 5

can a barthollins gland cyst be serious?

Accepted Answer

No, but: it may need some real treatment.
Without an actual examination, I cannot give specific medical advice on your particular health, but
it's like any other cyst.
1) size, increasing size, discomfort are factors.
2) if it is infected (red, hot, painful, pus) then... needs treatment.

Question 6

what can you do to treat a bartholin's gland cyst?

Accepted Answer

Several ways: Often a bartholin's cyst requires no treatment . When needed, treatment depends on the size of the cyst, your discomfort level and whether it's infected, which can result in an abscess. 
1- treatment options (sitz baths).
2-surgical drainage. 
3-antibiotics. 
4-marsupialization if it come back and bother you.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Antibiotics: If antibiotics do not work or the gland becomes infected again, then  incision and drainage is appropriate.

Question 8

good day

Accepted Answer

Bartholin's cysts: Bartholin glands are located near the vaginal orifice and can be infected or just filled with fluid/mucus.  See your gyn physician for an exam to determine what can be done.

Question 9

week ago had symptoms of bartholin's gland cyst but went away. am now having same pain on other side. both spontaneously occurred. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Be checked: Some women do get Bartholin's cysts on both sides.   Best thing is to be seen.  It is usually simple to drain.  If the cysts keep recurring or develop abscesses, sometimes an operation is needed to sew them open.  It's outpatient and is called marsupilization.  Just follow up with your GYN.  Good luck!

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Follow up with DR.: It is important to follow up with the Dr who ordered the scan. They know your history and what symptoms you presented with, as well as the most current physical exam findings and results from blood or other tests that you have done. They can explain your results in detail as it pertains to your unique situation as well as advising you on a course of treatment if needed. Call your Dr.
