Hi,
Your symptoms are suggestive of vaginal infections, more likely to be a bacterial infection. Maintaining vaginal hygiene will help in early recovery from infections. Vaginal smear can be taken to identify the cause. Since you have mentioned recurrent symptoms, any pelvic infection should also be ruled out. You will be required to take a course of antibiotics.
Topical application of antibacterial cream should also be done. Any history of urinary tract infection should also be identified and treated simultaneously.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
