Hello,
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
All the details you have mentioned suggest the possibility of vaginal skin tag.
Vaginal skin tags are quite common and they are benign(non cancerous) and nothing to worry in it.
Skin tags can be easily removed and various treatment options are available.You can opt for laser therapy or cryosurgery which are most modern methods and they are painless techniques and chance of recurrence is rare.
Before commencing the treatment we have to rule out some diseases like genital warts and STDs(Sexually Transmitted Diseases)
The white discharge most probably due to some fungal infection and most often unrelated to those skin tags.
I suggest you to consult a gynecologist and get a speculum examination done to make a correct diagnosis.He would explain about various treatment options that are available.
Hope this information helps.
Regards.
