What Causes Itching, Redness And Flaking/peeling Of Skin Of Labia?
Hi, im wondering if I may have a yeast infection or some other condition. My labia is very itchy and red and the slin thats there has been flaking/peeling off almost like when you get sunburn. Its fairly uncomfortabl from both the itchiness as well as if i try to relieve the itchiness. Could it be that I need to moisturize the area? And if so what products can I use that would be effective to help? Or is it something else that I should be concerned with? Thanks
Hello dear I understand your concern I think it is the recurrent yeast infection I would suggest to undergo vaginal swab test and drug sensitivity tset after consult the gynecologist. Diabetes should be rule out by doing fasting blood sugar. Doctor will give following advises: Tablet flucanazole for4 week. single dose of metronidazole 1 gm. Vaginal suppoiroty of clotrimazole plus clindamycine Vaginal moisturizer cream like vagisil Take healthy diet and antioxidant supplements like zinc and selenium. Wear pure cotton loose undergarment and avoid sweats in pelvicarea. Avoid sex till yo get better. Hope this may help you
