What Causes Recurring Itching Around My Vulva?

I have had slight itching around my vulva, on and off for about a year. It gets so itchy that I sometimes make the area bleed from scratching. I have also had recurrent cysistitis symptoms for about a year and a half. Both come and go without relation to each other. But I have noticed that I have small cuts in lines that seem to be the cause of the itching. They are always in the same places and hardly ever fully heal. I have one cut right at the top of my vulva, where the lips open that never fully heals and is always aggravated by stretching my legs apart by exercise or even just wiping after having a wee. I have just finished a course of antibiotic (amoxicillin) for a throat infection and the whole area seems to be even more itchy and sore. I have been scratching so much the past few days that the areas on my vulva have bled a little. I don t know what the cause is! I am very embarrassed about this. I have only ever had to sexual partners and both have been boyfriends, so I can t imagine I ve caught anything. Please help!
