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.
What Causes Crawling Sensation Around The Vagina And Anus?
during the day and night before bed, I feel a crawling sensation in/around my vagina/anus. I had 1 stool sample taken and they came back negative...I had my blood tested also...they said I have elevated bilirubin..what is this crawling/itching feeling? Is it parasites?
As a physician, I would like to tell you that crawling sensations in and around vaginal and anus are most commonly due to a fungal infection. As you have already done stool sample test, it rules out problem of helminthic infection.
Thus I would suggest that you should take a medication course for yeast infection inside vaginal area. You should use Cotrimazole pessary Like Candid-V6 to keep inside vagina once daily for six days and the yeast infection will subside.
Regards, Dr. Abhijeet
