Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Sorry for such a long delay in my response.

Bartholin abscess occurs due to infection and blockadge of bartholin gland ducts which is situated both sides of vagina.

Sometimes it will take time to resolve this issue, so in your case may be 4-5 days more required.

If pain and fever persist, consult your treating doctor.
