What Causes Severe Itching And Soreness In Vagina?
Hi. Im just wondering, lately ive been very itchy and sore down in my vagina area, i put it down to thrush due to the alike symptoms so i went to the chemist and brought a 3 day thrush treatment kit. I did my first one last night and this morning i woke up, went to the toilet to pee and when i wiped i notied red blood along with the cream coming out. Itd happened twice so far day and im really worried. Please help.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection. A swab test will be helpful to rule out this. You can apply clotrimazole cream ( monistat ) for this. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the genital area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Using intimate wash daily is also good to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
