Okay so I had a Bartholin's Abcess a while ago, that was EXTREMELY painful, without going to a doctor I did my research and continuously put warm compresses to it, and soaked in warm water. This caused it to rupture THANK GOD, but the only thing is I have a small lump left behind, it doesn't hurt at all thank god, and most times I forget that it's there...it's just recently i questioned it and now I'm curious to know if it is normal.
