Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
Even though you need a gynaecological examination with related investigations like an ultrasound/urine test/culture sensitivity test of the discharge to arrive at a definitive diagnosis, for the present you might go for some kind of anti inflammatory drug along with a proton pump inhibitor, and a broad spectrum antibiotic to be prescribed by your family physician. However, you have to get an appointment with a gynaecologist in your area for further detailed management of the problem.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
