General & Family Physician 's  Response
apple cider vinegar has anti bacterial n anti fungal property..take two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and mix it with warm water.Wash your vagina with this water twice a day for two to three days. This should effectively take care of your problem. Apple cider vinegar makes the vagina acidic where the bacteria cannot thrive for long.
Cold compress also helps to relief itching..so before going to sleep,do cold compress.
do salt bath.wash your vagina with concentrated salt water
pure yoghurt made of sheeps milk..apply it directly over vagina.
keep d vagina dry..sweat free.n use anti bacterial talc and wear loose clothing.
hope u get well soon.thank you
