Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have one through your query. As it is nearly 2 weeks already, this can be due to yeast infection. In such case using clotrimazole cream for local application will be helpful. This is available as over the counter in brands like monistat. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Using intimate wash daily will be helpful to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH also.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
