Question

I've noticed a white lump between my anus and vagina. It's not painful, but it's kind of hard and seems like it has a little opening on it. Could you help me understand what this might be and if it's something I should be worried about?

You may have a Bartholin's cyst. I recommend using sitz baths to help reduce the discomfort and swelling. You can also use over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. If the cyst becomes infected, antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin may be prescribed. If the cyst is large or causing significant symptoms, surgical drainage or removal may be necessary.

Can I use the 10% Betadine solution for a sitz bath to help with my episiotomy stitches? I was previously using the 5% solution, but now I only have the 10% one. Is it safe to continue with the sitz bath using this higher concentration? Im just worried if it might be too strong.
