Suggest Home Remedies For Swollen Vulva
Hi I have a swelling in my vulva area, the pain is excruciating. From what I have read online it matches the description of a bartholin s abscess, the problem is I am not in a place where I can easily access a good medical check up and I can barely walk either. Please what would be the best home remedy to help most especially with the pain, and is magnesium sulphate safe to use down there Thank you Yucee

Hello,
If you have a Bartholin cyst that probably may be infected you can use warm and cold baths with Epson salts too. You should help it open and drain its stuff to help you with pain. You can wash it also with baking soda.
If it still doesn't drain you should go to doctor to make it open and drain. Also, if it is infected you should receive antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
