Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection. A swab test will be helpful to rule out the condition. For such condition I would recommend using anti fungal creams like clotrimazole for local application. Clotrimazole cream is available as over the counter in brands like monistat. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the genital area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Using intimate wash is also good to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
