Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Soreness

I had UTI symptoms so I had waited 3 days later to go to the ER because I figured it will clear from fluid. But it s gotten worse, so I now I m taking antibiotics for it & I m frequently using the bathroom and sweating. I put Vaseline on it & it s getting aI m not having sex & I ve noticed the day before I went to the ER I gotten a sore on my vagina. I do suffer from razor bumps and folliculitis. What is it? Friction?

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Sores can be due to irritation from razor. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the genital area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Applying betadine ointment locally will be helpful. UTI will clear up with antibotic. You can use potassium citrate in water to relieve the burning sensation. Taking cranberry juice or barley water will be helpful also. If there is no improvement then urine culture and sensitivity test should be done and change antibiotic if necessary after getting culture report.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
