Bartholin Cyst/Abcess at home treatment

So basically the day after I had sex, I got a cyst down there Which was Monday it is currently Friday night. I I’m not in any excruciating pain however it is definitely awkward and uncomfortable.

I don’t have health insurance. My job does not offer it and I need an immediate solution. I’ve been doing the sitz bath stuff for 2 days, and the size keeps fluctuating between a quarter and a large grape I don’t know what to do.

The first time I had one it ended up popping while having intercourse. Yes it was excruciating, but the guy that I slept with basically cleaned it for me he put on gloves and he even showered me and everything but I did end up going to the hospital for antibiotics just in case and it healed perfectly fine no infection no nothing.

It just feels uncomfortable and I’ve already done my research and they keep telling me to go to a medical provider to get it drained but I literally do not have health insurance anymore. This is something that I need to fix immediately.

Please help😭
