Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Smell in the vaginal area can be due to slight changes in the vaginal flora. This do not cause excessive discharge, itching or burning. However, you may need lactic acid treatment. Occasional smelly discharge or vaginal odor is acceptable. But its best to check for infection which has to be done by a gynecologist. If you have fever, abdominal pain, irregular bleeding then please schedule this appointment as urgent else do not worry . Please take plenty of water, pass urine every 2 hours to avoid infections, use INTI WASH to clean your private parts and see how you feel.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
