Brief Answer:
Taking B12 supplements will be helpful.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Taking B12 supplements will be helpful to get relief from your condition. You can also apply ointments containing corticosteroid like hydrocortisone and anti fungal like miconazole for local application. Aloe Vera gel is another option. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the genital area and instead you can use saline or warm water.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
