General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
HI, I understand your concern. The swelling of vagina along with itching suggests allergy or fungal infection ( instigated by antibiotics taken ). You should visit your doctor for evaluation.After local examination the specific cause can be noted will be followed by specific treatment it may be - - Allergic- withdrawing antibiotic/ replace by other suitable antibiotic. _ anti allergic drugs. - Fungal infection-usually associated by curd like white discharge. Anti fungal drugs with local vaginal suppositories & cream are given to both partners. Thanks.
