What Causes Severe Itching And Burning Sensation In The Vaginal Area?

What would cause severe itching and burning in the vaginal area besides a yeast infection. I was just tested for a yeast infection and the results came back negative. I was told to use anti itch over the counter creams. This is now so painful I can barely sit, walk, etc. they told me this is common during menopause due to low estrogen.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be a lower urinary tract infection, vulvovaginitis and contact dermatitis.
Consul the gynecologist and go for vaginal swan test, urine reporting and CBC to rule out above causes.
Doctor will give following advises:
Take single dose treatment of azithromycin + fllucanazole + tinidazole.
Use vaginal suppository of clotrimazole and lactobaccilus. Take Syrup cital
Wash vagina with warm salted water and then apply apple ciddar vinegar.
Mild steroid ointment can be useful in severe itching.
Wear pyre cotton loose undergarments.
Drink plenty of water and juice of cranberry and orange.
Hope this may help you
