Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic
I have reviewed the attached photograph and it seems to be yeast infection.
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to apply topical antifungal like clotrimazole cream on the affected areas twice daily for 2 weeks.
This should resolve the infection.
Regards
Dr Asmeet

Brief Answer:
Ask your partner about vaginal discharge and itching
