Hello,

Your symptoms are suggestive of a local irritation. I recommend using camomile tea or a gentle soap against irritation. If this does not help, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician and performing a vaginal discharge bacterial culture.

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

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
