What Causes Itchy Boils Around Vagina?

Uhm hello I seriously need help. The skin around my vagina looks folded and the are small boil like stuff on there. It really itches sometimes but when I scratch it too much it burns and hurts. I think it is a yeast infection and I wanted to treat it but I heard if you don t know for sure if it s a yeast infection you shouldnt treat it because you would make it worse. I m so confused and I don t know what to do and I m in pain. Please tell me what to do.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some local skin infection. either fungal or bacterial.
You might require one course of antibiotic medicine for 5-7 days.
Take cetrizine medicine for itching as itching might aggravate the lesion.
Apply triple action cream locally.
Keep local hygiene clean, dry and airy.
Ok and take care.
