What Causes Itching Sensation In The Vaginal Area?
I have a question about the vaginal area . I recently went to the doctors to find out that I have a sinus infection I was prescribed an antiobiotoc and have been taking them for over a week now , about 2 days ago I got my period and my vaginal area started to itch very badly I noticed it hurt when I touched it as it has swelled up there is also a massive rash down there ? What should I do ? I kind of came to the conclusion that it was due to my pad which I am not using and the itching has come down a bit but it’s still there and so it the rash?
