You could also research homeopathy to help drain it or see an Oriental Medicine 
herbalist for herbs to heal it.

  I was wondering about "zapping" it somehow.  I do have a TENS machine on 
hand.  If I could re-purpose that?


  Open to ideas, as I said.  This is a first for me.  Once I got over being 
freaked out I had developed some cancerous growth I calmed down enough to do 
some research, but nothing is very helpful on alternative, natural remedies 
other than sitz baths and that they seem to mostly recommend for cyst phase - 
which I apparently skipped or never noticed - abscess phase does not sound like 
it resolves on its own well.  :-(

    You are right, you do not have an STD.  But what you have is very painful.  
If the combined expertise of this list can come up with an alternative 
treatment they will be helping womankind take a giant step forward.

    I would research Ode's CS gel base and perhaps Renee's MMS and then the 
many versions of a zapper to kill the pathogen.

    Best of luck and please let us know what happens.

      I have an infected gland in the genital area.  I have read what the 
medical establishment's solution would be - which would be to drain it, put in 
a catheter, possible antibiotics, possible surgical procedure to create a 
permanent opening for drainage ... none of this sounds very fun to me. 


      You all have a lot on knowledge and info.  Any ideas on a dmso, CS, or 
other alternative method of addressing this?  I plan to do some baths/soaks, 
but no idea topically if anything might help.


      The gland is called the bartholin's gland - I currently have an abscess - 
as indicated by inflammation and rather significant pain.  I do NOT have an STD.
