Today I discovered brown discharge, and sometimes yellow. I actually noticed that the right labia was swollen a while ago but didn't think much of it. Now it is progressively worse. Extremely swollen and hard, and there are tiny bubbles on the end. I was diagnosed with HPV a month ago, but doctor assured me that women typically don't have any symptoms and again this is only on the right side. The left labia is perfectly normal.. I think it may be a yeast infection on the right that I didn't treat and now it's something else entirely. I'm hoping to get some over the counter medicine as soon as possible

Hi,
Nice to hear from you again though.
Sorry for the delay in my response.
It can be due to vulvovaginitis inflammation and infection caused by bacteria, virus, yeast, allergy and STD.
You should confer with your treating physician and get yourself examined and investigation done to rule out the cause.
Follow these advices-
-Maintain proper vaginal hygiene.
-Avoid perfumed, soap or chemical
-Use loose fitting cotton undergarments
-Cold compress is helpful
-Apply 1% hydrocortisone cream for local application.
Hope it is useful.
Once again, sorry for delay in my answer.
