It may be due to bacterial vaginitis. Still for further assessment you may require complete hemogram, discharge culture after gynaecologist consultation. You may require antibiotics after consultation. Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.
You may apply ointment containing clotrimazole and lignocaine locally. For itching you can take tablet loratidine.
Maintain proper hygiene. Use V wash. Avoid sexual act till complete recovery.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
