What Casues Pain And Inflammation In The Vagina?

My labia is very red and almost looks like it s raw on the edges. My clitoris is also sore and was peeling some. This has been going on for like a week. I bought Vagasil and have used it a few times but I don t notice a difference. Any ideas why this is happening, what it could be from and should I be concerned?

General Surgeon 's  Response

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query.
I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
These symptoms and signs are suggestive of STD especially if there is associated pain, fever, urethral discharge and recent sexual intercourse. So this is the first thing to rule out by doing STD testing. Second, it may be sign of uroinfection or urinary stones and some other genital infection but this is less common. In every case, antibiotic therapy may be required so test should be done as soon as possible so that appropriate treatment can be started. Till that try to drink plenty of fluids, avoid sexual intercourse and rest.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
