Hello,
Welcome to HCM,

The symptoms and the history are suggesting me that you are having fungal infection. the fungus are the normal comensals of the genitals which are kept under control by helpful organisms when ever there is a imbalance in the environment these fungus will activate and produces the symptoms of fungal infection.

As you are having the symptoms of the fungal infection you have to follow
1.Good hygiene
2.Keeping that area clean and dry
3.Topical Antifungal cream like Ketaconazole
4.Oral Antihistamine.
Thank you.
