Bartholinitis is prone to recurrence

Bartholin's glands are soybean-sized glands behind the labia majora on both sides of a woman. The glands have glandular ducts about 1 to 2 cm long and open into the groove between the labia minora and the hymen. Therefore, keeping the vulva clean is the main way to prevent infection and recurrence. Experts recommend that women wash their vulva every day, not wear nylon underwear, and seek timely treatment when suffering from vulvitis, which can prevent the recurrence of Bartholin's glands to a certain extent.

How to prevent the recurrence of Bartholinitis?

1. Generally speaking, Bartholinitis is likely to recur. Therefore, female patients should pay attention to whether the treatment is in place and whether there is bleeding or infection during examination and treatment. Active treatment and consolidation are required after surgery.

2. It is important to remind you that you should not think that the more times you do vaginal douching, the better. Doing this method too frequently can easily lead to pH and flora imbalance, and can easily cause double infection and recurrence.

3. In the early stages of the disease, patients should control the infection in a timely manner. Once it becomes chronic, it can easily cause the body's disease resistance to weaken and lead to repeated attacks.

4. In the acute stage, patients should stay in bed and rest, pay attention to local cleaning, apply local cold compresses, and use antibiotics. If an abscess has formed, it should be drained immediately, and the incision should be made at the thinnest part of the skin.

5. When treating, just cut open the abscess and drain it to cure. If you don't see a doctor in time, the abscess may burst naturally. If the drainage is not smooth, it will recur. Bartholinitis often occurs in women of childbearing age. Its prevention mainly involves paying attention to the local hygiene of the vulva and changing underwear frequently.
