I Am Having Yeast Infection And Vagina Really Hurts Every Time I Put Vagisil

I thought I had a yeast infection so I ve been using vagisil and an over the counter medicine to get rid of them. But my outer lips are really irritated and sensitive, everytime I put the vagisil on them it burns really bad. I don t have any STD s because me and my boyfriend are exclusive and haven t slept with anyone else, and I ve had yeast infections before but it never got so bad.

Hi Hannah;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
Irritated & sensitive vaginal lips are due to vulvo-vaginitis .It could be a infection due to yeast with super added bacterial infection .Since you have used over the counter medicines with no relief it will be advisable to get examined & treated by a Gynaec so that you get a proper treatment & resume your normal life.
Thanks
