Hello,

Thanks for writing to Health Care Magic, I am Dr Muhammad Ahmad I have read your question and I will help you in this regard.

Vaginal itching is not usually caused by the food items you just mentioned , it seems to be local inflammatory or allergic reactiom your have to take care of it

1) Keep good hygiene of the area.
2) Use some OTC vaginal anti inflammatory cram.
3) Use antihistamin like citerizine 10mg daily at night for 5 nights.
4) Ibuprofen twice a day can help reduce inflammation.
5) Wear soft garment to prevent friction.

Dont panic this will get better in 3..4 days dont rub the itching area it will further damage the delicate surface.

I hope this answered your question if you have more questions feel free to ask regards.
