Dr. Georgia Latham answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

No: Skene cysts form if the duct to the gland is blocked, usually because the gland is infected. If cysts become infected, they may form an abscess. If cysts cause symptoms, they can be surgically removed. If an abscess develops, antibiotics are indicated. You should have a medical evaluation and proper treatment.
