Suggest Treatment For Labial Crease Irritation
I have a shallow to medium in depth labial crease irritation. It is only on one side. I inserted a monastate stick to determine if I have a yeast infection and it turned out negative. What do to speed up healing process and what do you suggest to prevent from happening?

Hi,
Yeast infection is not the only cause. there can be another issue too. Did you have unprotected sex recently?
We can think of STI or not. Vaginal discharge can be due to
1. Gonorrhea and chlamydia are the usual cause of STI, early diagnosis and start antibiotics will help you.
2. Urinary tract infections with increased frequency of urination, irritation during urination, lower abdominal pain - urine culture will help to diagnose. 3. Urethritis - damage to the urethra from intercourse or masturbation, irritation from a product, such as soap, deodorant, or detergent, adenovirus, genital injuries.
4. Trichomoniasis infection can be diagnosed by swab or urine sample.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
