Are Itching, Burning Sensation And Swelling In Vagina Suggestive Of Yeast Infection?

i think I might have some sort of yeast infection but maybe it s worse than that. I have been having some itching down in my private parts and when I scratch it seems to itch and burn at the same time and even more after I scratch. I have excessive discharge that gives off a strong odor as well. It hurts to walk because my private parts are swollen. This has been going on for 2 months but I can t go to any type of Doctor since I am uninsured at the moment and it s taking forever to reinstall my insurance again. I am really worried because I recently just started bleeding from one side of my Virginia like the outer labia. I don t know what to do

Pathologist and Microbiologist 's  Response
Hello,

Itching in private parts along with discharge with bad odor is due to infection. I suggest you to consult your gynecologist for clinical assessment, take culture of the vaginal discharge and select appropriate antibiotic against the infectious agent.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
