Hello dear
Understand your concern
Canker sore on vagina mainly due to skin infection (bacterial/fungal) due to improper hygiene.
Take following advice:
Wear loose pure cotton under garments
Apply antiseptic like providine iodine 2-3 times daily. After it get dry apply ointment of neomycin plus hydrocortisone.
Analgesic like ibuprufen also help.
Keep the area dry and clean.
Avoid sex till you get better.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
