Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per my clinical experience, this issue is an inflammation of external genitals as vaginitis (bacterial, fungal or viral) associated with UTI (Urinary tract infection).
Primary guidelines for best recovery are:
- Systemic care with plenty of liquids, antibiotic, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory drugs prescription with the doctor.
- Local care with gentian violet sitz bath.
- Avoidance of vaginal sex if involved.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
