Bartholin's Cyst not infected / painful but growing - any tips for removing?

Hello all!

Thank you for your contributions in this forum. I’ve had BC twice now, and the second time was painful but not as excruciating as the first one, hugely because of the self-care tips I have learnt from this forum. Thank you! The turmeric + coconut oil + tea tree oil with sitz bath combo has worked for me to escalate the bursting process. It’s all very gross but there is instant relief from pain once it bursts.

Now I still have a cyst on my other labia, but it’s not painful (so I suppose it’s not infected). This one has been around for months now, but I feel like it’s slowly growing in size. I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions or tips on how to remove what I imagine is ‘stuck fluids’ in the gland? Is the solution also using the turmeric + coconut oil + tea tree oil concoction? (I haven’t placed those on this cyst).

Appreciate any help, having a lopsided vagina is rather unsettling.
Thank you!

When my cyst would be in that stage I just called the doctor and would take an antibiotic. I found for me, doing those tricks when it was still small and not painful made it grow and become painful in my opinion because it was trying to get the cyst to bust but there was not enough fluid or infection to make that happen so all that stuff just pissed it off. Keep in mind, i was never successful getting any of my cysts to burst at home.
