Hi everyone, I'm booked to have this surgery in September but am still really worried about it!

my cyst doesn't hurt or bother me at all at the moment! Could you tell me your experiences of this operation from start to finish healing?

how sore was it? When were you able to drive after? Where u able to carry on as normal after?

I'm worried as I have 2 young children and I'm childminding! I am having the opp on a Fri and have the Monday off but I have to get back to work on the tues and be able to drive for school pick ups :o(

also, was all your stitches inside your lady bits? Did it look different from the outside? If that makes sense?

many thanks for all your help! I'd really appreciate all the details you can give me!

      Hi fati

      oh you poor thing

      when i had a cyst size of walnut..

      my doc said bathe in table salt water bath..

      i threw a cup of table salt in hot water in bath, until dissolved ..

      topped bath up to the level where it was top of leg level..

      did this two or three times a day..

      water must be as hot as you can bare it..

      the salt unclogs pores and the heat draws fluid..

      encouarge the water inside if you can around the area of cyst..

      this worked for me .. old remedy was the best ...

      never came back ..

      this would help you fati with the sore labia

    Hi Michelle, Thanku! Your messages really help!! :o) from what the surgeon said about small incision and 4 stitched when I saw him it sounds the same as what you had done so will be keeping my fingers crossed my experience is Similar to your :o) I'm just trying to think of it as an afternoon by myself to relax and lay in bed! Lol although I wish I was on a morning surgery list to get it over and done with rather than afternoon! Don't have to be there until 12! 

    Will let you know how I get on! Thanks again! X
