Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have incredible vulvar itching Right side is slightly larger than left. It has become far worse in the last 2 months. I scratch so hard sometimes I cause bleeding and now getting very strong nerve itch. Wat could be the cause? I have had a total hysterectomy 20 years ago.
What problems you are facing of vaginal itching could be due to dryness in vagina. Kindly take the following measures to overcome the symptoms. 1. Wash the area with warm water and mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily. 2. Apply Hydrocortisone cream after drying. 3. Apply zinc-based moisturizer cream at bedtime. 4. Take tablet Levocetirizine to control itching.
Gradually, your symptoms should subside.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
