Could The Discharge Of Green Mucus After Bursting Of Bertholin Cyst Be A Matter Of Concern?

I have had what I am sure is a Bertholin Cyst develop over last few days. This had now burst this morning to show a bright red discharge with green mucus. The pain I was suffering had now gone almost completley. Will I now be ok, or do I still need to see a doctor? Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Green mucus discharge following rupture of Bartholin cyst indicates that it would have been infected. It is good that it has ruptured and see to it that all the contents are completely drained out.
Kindly take antiinflammatory medication like Tablet.Ibuprofen after food twice a day for 3 to 5 days. Continue with Sitz bath until the wound heals completely. Abstain from sexual activities till the lesions heal completely.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
