What Is The Cause And Remedy For Puffiness And Dryness On The Labia Minora ?
My labia minora has been puffy and swollen for about a month now. I first noticed it after my period last month and it was tender to the touch. Afterwards I kept getting more symptoms, yeasty smelling discharge , itching, burning, weird smelling urine. So I went to the doctors and they treated me for both a UTI and Yeast Infection . All of the symptoms have gone away except for the puffiness and its very dry down there. I have tried anti- fungal cream, vagisil, and nothing has seemed to work. Any home remedies that could get rid of my problem? Or a diagnosis?

Hi, I think you had a Bartholin's abscess which has turned up into a Bartholin's cyst after the treatment. Treatment is a minor surgery ( if that is the diagnosis). Please visit to a gynecologist, as home remedies are unlikely to help. take care.
