HiT hanks for posting on ChatDoctorThe Catholics glands are located on each side of the vaginal opening. These glands secrete fluid that helps lubricate the vagina. Sometimes the openings of these glands become obstructed, causing fluid to back up into the gland. The result is relatively painless swelling called a Catholics cyst. If the fluid within the cyst becomes infected, you may develop a collection of pus surrounded by inflamed tissue (abscess). This is exact what happened to you. When obstructed(cyst) or infected(abscess) the best treatment is marsupialisation. After this act, antibiotic may help prevent further evolution of infection. However, the germ in cause may be resistant to the antibiotic given. This may explain the poor response you had on treatment. I will suggest you see the Doctor for a pus culture and antibiotic sensitivity test. From the results, a more objective antibiotherapy may be prescribed. You will also have to see the Hospital for regular Chat Doctor.
