Normally, bartholin gland cysts aren't treated unless they are causing discomfort. If treatment is needed, the preferred treatment is known as marsupiallization. This is a minor office procedure that prevents the cyst from recurring. Opening and draining the cyst will provide relief, but it is often not long-lasting.

What do you do when you've had marsupialization on a bartholins cyst and then never healed up after the surgery?
It may be that you are experiencing exactly what you are supposed to. Marsupialization of a Bartholin's cyst is supposed to leave a small opening when it is complete. This is so that the cyst is much less likely to become infected and form an abscess after the surgery. If, on the other hand, you still have signs of infection (redness, soreness, swelling, and/or drainage), then you should see your doctor.
