Hi, Fever, pain , with inguinal lymph node swelling is possible after Bartholi's abscee.Fortunately it has ruptured on it's own. Still it must be drained compleately- you will need few dressings & may be incision of the abscess under a Gynac's care.A specialist's consultation will be ideal. Along with antibiotics some anlgesic & anti inflammatary (Ibuprofen-paracetamol combination) ,+B complex,vit C orally are usually given in such patient. Your throat & other glands inflammation suggest associated infective glandular disease (which has adefnate H/O contact with patient ) .Both the conditions can be treated by same course .
Welcome to HCM. . A Bartholin's cyst is not an infection, although it can be caused by an infection, inflammation, or physical blockage to the Bartholin's ducts (tubes which lead from the glands to the vulva). If infection sets in, the result is a Bartholin's abscess. If the infection is severe or repeated, a surgical procedure known as marsupialization may be required to stop further recurrences. You have to consult you treating doctor for these symptoms and continue antibiotic for it.
