Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I m having a burning sensation on my vagina area. My primary care doctor told me that s normal as long as I don t have other syptoms with it. What could be causing this? Could it be my hemorrhoids? I didn t have any problem before with my hemorrhoids. Should I get a second opinon?
Hello dear I understand your concern Burning sensation could be due to contact dermatitis/chemical burn, atrophic vaginits/estrogen deficinecy, vaginal infection. Haemorrhoids can not cause burning sensation. I would suggest to consult the gynecologist and undergo vaginal examination,swab test and urine tests to confirm the disease.Treatment will depend on the cause. Meanwhile take following advises: Apply vagisil cream Wash vagina with warm salted water and then apply apple cidar vinegar Put lactobacillus suppository Wear pure cotton loose inner Maintain proper pelvic hygiene by using V vaginal plus wash. Avoid perfumed cosmetics and soap. Drink plenty of water and take healthy diet. Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. SAGAR
