Itching In Vagina, Lower Back Pain. Tried Different Medications, No Results. Recommendations?

My vagina has itched for about 5 years and no one has ever helped me with it. I wasnt sexually active when it started and recently my lower back has been hurting. I tried the medicated vagisil from rite aid and it made it worse. Ive tries jock itch powder, cold cream, witch hazel and vaseline. I douched with small amounts of vinegar and h2o2 in water. I bath with a little of those and epsom salts. Nothing works. Please help! The itch is unbearable and embarrassing

hi.. thanks for using HCM,
you had vaginal itching, and probably you have not taken medical advice..
you have taken self medication and used lot of irritant which will exaggerate the symptoms.
you have not mentioned your age/menstrual cycles.. but you have made a mention that you are not sexually active..
your complaints probably started with mild infection and you have mishandled the situation..
you need to put on antibiotics broad spectrum which covers aerobic and anaerobic organisms, ... you need to be investigated for the cause..
need to maintain your personal hygiene, wear comfortable, dry and clean underwear, menstrual hygiene is also very important..
see your gynaecologist for this..
all the very best.
