What Causes Itchy Swollen Vagina?

Hi.My right labia will sometimes feel itchy and become a bit swollen (even if I don't scratch it). It comes and goes and only occurs on my right labia. What could be a reason for this? I know its not yeast because I got tested for it. I read about bartholin cyst..could this be it? I hope it is not a cancer.. Thank you.

Hello
Welcome to HCM.
It might be due to fungal infections mainly candida.
Please consult your gynecologist for examinations and treatment.
Take tablet fluconazole 150 mg alternate day for 3 doses after your doctor's consultations.
In cancer, symptoms are different like bloody discharge, weight loss etc.
Don't worry it will be fine.
Hope it will helpful.
Thanks for contacting.
