Hello and welcome to HCM.

Thank you for your query.

From your presentation, if this was indeed a Bartholin's cyst (sounds like it) to start off with, the antibiotic prescribed has not completely treated the cyst. In such cases, the cyst should be surgically drained. I would request you to re-visit your doctor for the same.

Now coming to the pus like substance being drained from your urine, this also proves to be a sign of an infection. I would request you to go about a urine culture and sensitivity examination, along with a vaginal smear for a more clear picture, in order to diagnose and accurately treat. Although this is not a serious condition, infections can be more difficult to treat if left untreated for a long duration of time, which is why I request you to visit your doctor at the earliest.

In the meantime, please consume plenty of water, wear a sterile pad (2-4 every day) and comfortable cotton undergarments in order to avoid friction and further irritation to the affected area. And of course, if you are sexually active, kindly abstain from sexual intercourse. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://doctor.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-shoaib-khan/64581 . I would gladly help you.

Best wishes.
