Hi,
The burning sensation and skin peeling in the vaginal area is most likely acute vaginosis via bacterial infection with staph aureus or other bug.
Guidelines for best recovery:
- Drink more liquids to maintain hydration
- Do not withheld urination due to fear of burning on urination, otherwise you will end up in flared up
urinary tract infection
- Keep the area clean with antiseptic liquid or soap
- Prefer clean, cotton, loose inner wears
- Avoid tight jeans
- Avoid sexual intercourse (if active)
- Change tampons regularly during menses to avoid flare up of infection
- Eat balanced nutritious diet
- Focus on
vaginal flora mechanics with lacto bacillus otherwise,
fungal infection with candida can be super imposed
- Analgesic as ibuprofen or
paracetamol for transient relief
Get prescription of antibiotics with anti fungal medicines from your
OBGYN for best smoother recovery at earliest.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
