I've been reading all of the posts on the Bartholin Cyst and still have not read my exact symptoms.
It started as a minor discomfort in my vaginal area. Kind of itchy but nothing real noticable. The next day I started to get this bump on my left labia and it looked like maybe a pimple. it got bigger the next day and oh so tender. killed to sit down or have anything touch it. I started to get a white discharge and each time it hit the bump it would sting. The more active I was the more it hurt -- I guess because of the swelling.
By day 4 it was a lot better. The bump went down and the swelling too. Now (7 days later) there is no bump but the swelling is the same. My labia is so tender and i have to sit around it. It gets worse when i am out and about. The white discharge is there, but again there is no hardening there. it's just a big swollen labia.
So if it was a cyst and the cyst is now gone then why is it still swollen and tender? Is this something else. (BTW - I haven't had sex in 6 months - although I do use a vibrator weekly -- but not since this occured).
Help. Someone. Anyone.
