Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
I have gone through the picture uploaded.
It appears as if you have a yeast infection still.
The labia look typically inflamed, rough and have those small fissures or cuts that are typical of yeast infection.
You mentioned a recent infection, did you visit a doctor and have it confirmed, or just self treated it ?
I would suggest an appointment with your doctor.
Persistent, recurrent or lingering
yeast infections can lead to long standing complications.
Please have an internal evaluation - per vaginum and per speculum, and a vaginal swab, to confirm the type of infection.
Stop soaking in ACV for the time being.
Just use local
Clotrimazole cream / ointment on the
vulva and labia, and Clotrimazole vaginal suppositories .
I strongly suggest this should be done AFTER an internal evaluation by a doctor, as
self medication is not advisable for vaginal infections.
Also, for cleaning yourself, just use plain lukewarm water and XXXXXXX dry.
Stay away from all kinds of cleansers, gels, soaps, douches.
They just alter the vaginal pH, and disrupt the normal bacterial flora, thus predisposing the vagina to infections.
Wear clean and dry cotton underwear and change often.
If you have had such infections recurrently and frequently, two things must be done -
1. Test your blood sugars to rule out
diabetes.
2. Get an
STD screen for yourself and your partner.
All the best.
