What are the main symptoms of Bartholinitis?

Bartholinitis is caused by pathogens invading the Bartholin glands. Due to the anatomical location of the Bartholin glands, they are located in the deep 1/3 of the labia majora on both sides, and the gland duct opens between the hymen and the labia minora. Inflammation is prone to occur when the vulva is contaminated during sexual intercourse, childbirth, etc. So what are the symptoms of Bartholinitis?

In the early stage of infection, there is local redness, swelling, pain and pain during sexual intercourse. Examination shows small white spots at the opening of the Bartholin's gland on the patient's side, which are obviously tender to the touch.

2. Symptoms of vestibular glanditis: swelling of the vulva, severe pain, even urination pain and difficulty walking. During the examination, the patient's vulva is red, swollen, hot and painful, and there is a lump on that side. If an abscess has formed, the lump can be felt to have a sense of fluctuation and obvious tenderness. It is mostly unilateral, with an abscess size of 3-6cra in diameter. The skin becomes thinner, and the abscess continues to grow and may rupture on its own, and the symptoms will be alleviated. If the rupture is small and the pus is not drained smoothly, the symptoms may recur. Systemic symptoms include fever, increased white blood cell count, and enlarged inguinal lymph nodes on the patient's side.

3. Symptoms of Bartholinitis: When the cystic tumor is small, the patient is usually asymptomatic. When the tumor grows, the affected side of the vulva swells. During the examination, the affected side of the vulva is swollen, the cystic tumor can be touched, and it is adhered to the skin. The labia minora on that side is flattened, and the vaginal opening is squeezed to the healthy side. When the cyst is large, there may be a sense of local swelling and discomfort during sexual intercourse. If it is not treated in time, once bacterial infection is combined, it will cause Bartholin's gland abscess.
