For A while now, I ve been experiencing this itch in my vaginal area..when I took a look at it I saw that the right side of my labia looked a little swollen (it comes and goes every now and then) but just today I took another look and I actually saw some skin almost peeling off ON BOTH SIDES!!!

Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Swelling in the labial folds and itching in the vagina are most likely due to the fungal infection of the vagina.
This fungal vaginal infection causes itching in vagina, white discharge, swelling in the labia and peeling of vaginal mucosa.
Sometimes, vaginal bleeding can also occur.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined internally, get a vaginal swab examination done and get appropriate treatment timely.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Regards
