Do not try to remove a vaginal cyst yourself
Schedule an exam with a gynecologist or healthcare provider
Get the cyst evaluated to confirm the type and cause
Follow the provider’s recommended treatment plan
Use warm sitz baths to help with discomfort if advised
Take prescribed pain relievers or antibiotics if given
Have the cyst drained by a clinician if it is infected or painful
Have the cyst surgically removed if it is large, recurrent, or persistent
Seek urgent care if you have fever, severe pain, rapid swelling, or trouble walking or urinating
