3. When to See a Doctor

If you notice a small lump on your vaginal opening that doesn't resolve by itself after several days of self-care remedies such as warm baths, or if this lump becomes larger and more tender, you should schedule a doctor's appointment.

If the cyst grows rapidly and becomes so tender and painful that it affects movement, this is cause for an immediate clinical visit.2‘Bartholin’s Cyst,’ https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/bartholin-cyst/symptoms-causes/syc-20369976. Bartholin's cysts rarely resolve on their own if they become inflamed.[5Omole, Folashade; Simmons, Barbara; Hacker,Yolanda. ‘Management Of Bartholin’s Duct Cyst and Gland Abscess,’ American Family Physician, https://www.aafp.org/afp/2003/0701/p135.html
