How To Treat Burning Sensation In Vagina And Creamy Discharge Due To Yeast Infection?
To begin with I thought I had a yeast infection & it still may be a yeast infection but it s the first time I ve experienced this so I m nervous. My vagina began itching blow the hole and then it began itching in the hole. I started taking a yeast infection pill that my Mom gave me and the itching went away. I didn t have no gross discharge that looks like cottage cheese. I am discharging a little now. It s a milky clear color and yesterday my whole vagina burned. It didnt burn constantly just when touching it. Today when I wiped after urinating I noticed little spots of blood. Not a tremendous amount but just a little dot... I haven t been sexually active for almost 2 months now and this just began 4 days ago. Help me please

Hello,
You are suffering from creamy discharge from the vagina associated with burning sensation. Presently on wiping you observed spots of blood. You have yeast infections and hence white curdy / cottage cheese type discharge that is usually odorless. After wiping you noticed spots of blood, yeast infection can lead to minor bleeding caused by small cuts, tears, or sores in vaginal tissue due to infection.
Recurrence of yeast infection causes blood spots/bleeding. Take an oral antifungal medication (fluconazole) for three to seven days to clear yeast infection. You can apply vaginal suppositories like miconazole (Monistat 3) and terconazole in the vagina to get rid of infection. However, since you have been sexually active, you are suggested to get clinically examined by an OBGYN, get STD tests done to detect any STI to stay on the safer side. If detected positive you will be accordingly treated with antibiotics / antivirals.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,
I think you may need to do a vaginal smear to check for infection. I believe that it can be a fungal infection and the bleeding may be a result of irritation. You may need to use anti-fungal medications possibly suppositories.
