Hello,

It is important to rule out any infection causing your symptoms. Most commonly it could be a yeast infection. So you can try applying Lotrimin ointment for 14 days. If the symptoms don't improve in 2 days, follow up with ObGyn for further evaluation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal, General & Family Physician
