Any Suggestion For Internal Vaginal Swelling And Itching?
I am 65 and have been treated for internal vaginal swelling with sever itching in the vagina for the past year by many doctors giving me tests and then creams to try, all with no good results. Tests have shown that there is no yeast or bactiera problems. Do you have any suggestions or help?

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
If there is no evidence of infection on any of the tests done, then it is possible that the itching is not infectious in origin but related to irritation of the vaginal area from another source.
Vaginal itching can occur due to reactions to chemicals such as soap, detergents, lotions and creams, douching. You may want to consider altering one of these agents one at a time to see if there is any effect.
I hope this helps
