My Clitoris Is Itchy And Irritated And A Little Red
Question: My clitoris is itchy and irritated and a little red and very irritated. I think what's causing it is the fact that I used bath salts (like the kinds from bath and body works, not the drug) that I bought at a goodwill over a year ago when I bathe for the last two days. The first day it was slightly irritated now its really irritated. Do I need to see a doctor? How do I make this problem go away? I'm not having problems urinating or weired discharge only the itchiness and irritation.
Brief Answer:
It could be due to fungal infection.

Should I see a doctor or do they have that kind of stuff at the store? Do I need a prescription? Is it expensive? Is there anything else I can do? Is there any way it will just go away on its own? I'm kind of short on money so I dont want to have to go to a doctor and get a prescription unless its serious.
Brief Answer:
No most likely not a serious issue.
