Redness, Burning Sensation Near Vagina When Wiped. Previous Yeast Infection, Mirena. Advise?

on the right side of my vagina lips which i think is the labia not sure it is a tad bit red and burns a little it hurts when i wipe and really only burns when it is touched. what can this be? I am 22 and have had one yeast infection after i gave birth to my daughter in February of 2012. I've had normal discharge before her birth and after not so much i don't have a bad odor and my discharge is a little more from after giving birth which seems normal from what my body is use to. i also have the mirana.

Hello and welcome to HCM.

Thank you for your query.

From your description it sounds like you could be experiencing vaginitis (inflammation of the vagina), and has symptoms of discharge, itching, burning or pain. This can be brought about by any of the following reasons:
-Infections
-Chemical irritation (can be other forms of irritation as well; eg. clothes, due to friction, and so on)

You will have to get yourself examined by a doctor who will be able to accurately diagnose you with the help of a physical examination and some investigations.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications. I would gladly help you.

Best wishes.
