I had a bartholin cyst marsupialization done a month ago but there's still mild swelling and pain at the surgery site. It hurts when I sit down. How long until I fully recover?

While mild swelling and pain after a month of Bartholin cyst marsupialization is not unusual, it's important to determine if the symptoms are persistent or worsening. Generally, full recovery takes around 2-4 weeks
