What Causes A Rash On The Vagina Post Having An Unprotected Intercourse?
Hi. I had sex with my boyfriend 2 days ago..it was unprotected..since then I have like a rash on the left side of my inner lips in my vagina and I also have discharge..it doesn t burn when I pee and I haven t seen any blisters so far. But it feels really uncomfortable..I was diagnosed with genital herpes a few years ago but I haven t had it in a while so i don t know if it s coming back or not. Can you please help me?
Possibility of STD or local infection does exist so TORCH screen is recommended. However it should be reviewed by a dermatologist or a gynecologist to rule out any local infection like candida or clymydia.
The discharge may be sent for cultures as well as microscopy. Treatment would be according to the cause but avoid unprotected sex during this interval.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Regards,
Dr. Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
