I had a bartholin cyst marsupialization done a month ago but there's still mild swelling and pain at the surgery site. It hurts when I sit down. How long until I fully recover?

While mild swelling and pain after a month of Bartholin cyst marsupialization is not unusual, it's important to determine if the symptoms are persistent or worsening. Generally, full recovery takes around 2-4 weeks

Question

I'm a TB patient and it's been 9 months since my surgery. My doctor has me on Rcinex and said I should continue it for 3 more months. I'm wondering if I can take ipills, will they work for me? Also, my periods are a bit irregular, sometimes 1 or 2 days off, or even 34 days. It's been 18 days since my last period, and I'm a bit worried. Can you help?

Question

My bartholin cysts keep coming back and they're so painful, sometimes they even burst on their own. Can you explain all the treatment options like marsupialization or surgery, and what actually works best long-term?

Question

I've just gotten my STD test results back, and I'm a little worried. My HSV 1 IgG test is positive, but the IgM is negative. I've never had symptoms before, and last month was the first time I had oral sex, so I thought itd be a good idea to get checked. The healthcare provider mentioned everything is okay, but I'm still stressing out. Should I really be worried about this? Could this be something serious?
