What Causes Swollen Tonsils While Suffering From Bartholin Cyst?
I was recently diagnosed with a bartholin cyst about 3 weeks ago (I have had it for 4 weeks). It hasn t gotten smaller or larger but I was told it would ago away. It hasn t. I also didn t receive any antibiotics. Also, my right tonsil has bee inflamed and swollen for the past 3 weeks. This is something that happens off and on but has never lasted this long. There is no puss or white lesions. I don t have a primary doctor. What do you suggest? Are the linked together? Should I be worried?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The Bartholini cyst is no related to swollen tonsils.
The swollen tonsils can be related to a tonsillitis which is an inflammation of the tonsils.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the inflammation.
I also suggest using a throat spray for antibacterial properties.
If the symptoms continue, antibiotics may be needed.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
