In What Way Can Increasing Pain Due To A Bartholin's Cyst Be Managed?
A hot compress can help.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have seen the attached prescription. Your wife has been given antibiotics and painkiller to reduce the pain and infection. In addition to these medicines, she can do a hot compress in the area of swelling. This will help in the discharge of some pus from the cyst and thus reduce the throbbing sensation. She can use the hot water bottle or sit in a tub of warm water for this purpose.
Avoid all the painful activities and use only cotton undergarments. She can also try to keep the area clean. Go for follow up to her gynecologist after 3 days to see if the swelling subsides.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Better to get it operated.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing in again.
The need of operation depends on the size of the cyst and the extent f discomfort she has. The cyst is known for recurrence. It is best to get it removed if possible. If it is not operated then it can get infected again. It is a small and minor surgery without much complications.
Hope my answer is helpful.
