Posted on Tue, 18 Apr 2017
Question: Hi
I am having extreme itching and rashes near my vagina. Accidentally, i scratched it so bad, that it seems like i got some cut and it started bleeding. However that has stopped now. But i can see the area is completely red. I applied coconut oil as a home remedy and vaseline also.
What can be done for this itching. This is sometimes irresistible.

From the history it looks like fungal infection or due to allergic rash.
You can apply any antifungal ointment for 2 to 3 weeks twice daily.Initially you can start with Candid B for 1 week followed by CANDID for 3to 4 weeks.If you are married simultaneously treat your partner also.
