Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely bartholin cyst. This can get infected and there can be collection of pus. In such case it should be drained. Hot fomentation and applying betadine ointment will be helpful. Wrong cleaning techniques or not keeping proper genital hygiene is the usual reason for this. While washing or cleaning anal area do it on one direction towards the anal side. Using intimate wash daily is also good to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH. This will also help to abort its occurrence.
Let me know if anything not clear. I am happy to help you.
Thanks.
