Question : back to health department I had an STD in my tests came back normal so why I'm still feeling this burning and itching situation
Brief Answer:
Other infections like candida may be possible.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
Having negative results for STD is good but this doesn't exclude overall infections.
You may need to do a vaginal smear to check for possible infections that are not only sexually transmitted like candida infection or bacterial vaginosis.
Taking count that burning and itching are the main symptom it may be a yeast infection.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
