What Can Cause Inflammation And White Discharge From The Vagina Of A Toddler?

My 3 year old daughter has red and somewhat inflamed inside her vagina with a little bit of white pasty discharge. We noticed on Friday when she was taking a bath she got up and was wiping down there with a wash cloth and screamed in pain. What could this be and what should I do?

Hi,

But this can be due to a number of causes including vaginal infection which can be treated with an antifungal ointment containing nystatin three times daily. Also, it could be due to a foreign body impaction such as tissue or piece of cotton.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
