Hi,

A swollen vulva is a common symptom of vaginitis, which is an inflammation of the vagina. Vaginitis often results from a bacterial, yeast, or viral infection or an imbalance in vaginal bacteria.

Certain skin disorders or low levels of estrogen can also cause the condition to occur. unusual vaginal discharge.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
