Recurrence of Bartholin’s cysts is most often seen in patients who have had previous Bartholin’s cysts. The inflammation is mostly on one side or, rarely, both sides may be affected at the same time. Initially, there is often localized swelling and pain, discomfort at the vaginal opening, burning sensation, difficulty walking, and sometimes symptoms during defecation. If the patient develops pressure pain on one side, local redness, swelling, heat and pain, be alert to the recurrence of the Bartholin’s gland cyst, take the patient’s temperature or do a routine blood test, and in severe cases there can be varying degrees of enlargement of the inguinal lymph nodes on the affected side, all as a reaction to local inflammatory manifestations. In some patients, increased abdominal pressure and localized friction from walking can also cause localized rupture of the Bartholin’s gland cyst, resulting in reduced internal pressure, slight reduction in pain, and pus flow from the swelling, all of which are precursors to cyst recurrence.
