Question: Hi! Im a little concerned about my 2.5 year old daughter's labia region. It seems everytime I change her diaper, when I go to wipe between the labia, she tenses up and screams like she's in pain. I don't often seperate her labia because it's such a fight, but I always run wipes through it mulitple times (especially if she's pooped) to make sure it is clean in there. Anyway today while I was wiping a pee diaper, she started to cry when I wiped there. I decided to look between her labia and it looks very red, and at the tip of where it seems the urithra should be its like there's a white mass, node or something? Looks like a piece of skin? I tried to wipe it off gently but that seem to hurt her more so I stopped. Its at like the very bottom near the urethra, but on the clitorious too. It seemed hard when I tried to wipe it. She doesn't seem to be in pain when shes going to the bathroom.. But this white thing is really concerning to me. I'm making a doctors appointment with her pedi first thing monday, but since it is the weekend and im worried i thought I would ask here. Any ideas as to what it could be? I don't know that I should post a picture since it's her private area, so description is all I can do.

Do you think it could be a yeast infection? I just bathed her and looked inside her labia folds again (she sure didnt want me too poor thing) and i noticed another smaller white dot. I took a wipe and gently rubbed and this came right off. It was like a ball of cottage cheese. That first white mass i mentioned seems globbed on there like its stuck so i dont dare rub and irritate it more.. And i had no clue what it was cause it looked isolated. I guess i never thought of a yeast infection cause she had a few as a small baby and those ones caused a horrible red rash with satliete bumps.. She is a little red on her bum with only a few tiny red dots elsewhere, but no crazy rash. Is it possible to have a yeast infection without a crazy noticible diaper rash to go with it?

I also should note, she had an issue with a bug bite and her eyelid and was on a heavy dose of clyndimiacin for 10 days orally. Then she has been on a different eye cream which i believe is either antibiotic or steroid cream for about a month now. Ive read that if you take a lot of antibiotics itcan make yeast infections worse. Could that be contributing at all?

Okay so this morning while I changed her diaper, i was able to get what i thought was a white piece of skin out of her urithera. It is simply a mushy ball of white stuff... Kinda cottage cheese like? Im thinking if its not a yeast infection, could it be leftover A&D cream that got stuck in between there? Now that its gone shes just a little red and a tiny bit swollen. Im going to keep a close eye to see if any more of this white stuff shows up.

If it doesnt, do you think it was possibly just a piece of debris caught there that was causing pain and a little swelling?

What is skin slough and how do i prevent this from happening in the future?

So when i orignially asked my first question it was over the weekend and her doctor's office was closed. My plan was to call today and make and appointment. Now that everything seems to look normal (aside from a little swelling/redness) i think i may wait one more day and see if now that ive removed that if the redness goes away? What do you think? Do you think im ok to wait one more day and keep a close eye on her before deciding to takeher in?
