How To Get Rid Of The Abscesses Outside The Vagina Not Getting Away By Medication?

Hi , I have abscesses on my vagina ( on the outside not the inside ). They hurt and the doctor gave me some medicine to help it go away but it's not really working. So is there any surgeries to help get rid or can get rid of them. If so, pleaseeee let me know or tell me what I can do to get rid of them.

Hello

Abscess in vagina is probably due to infection. If not controlled by antibiotics, it is better to drain the abscess surgically. It is highly recommended that you should be screened for diabetes. Also a good genital hygiene can help you to prevent this.
