What Causes Itching And Burning Sensation In Vagina?

Dear Doctor I am a 25 years old female, and I recently started having an itch and burn for 3 days, I tried using a Seba Mid washing solution from a pharmacy and it didnt pay off, today I tried using it and it seems like I spotted some drops of red blood. I did not notice any discharge of any color and it does not swell, just pain, itch and burn. Worth mentioning that these symptoms occured after I shaved my vagina with a previously used blade (Personal use - only me).

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concern.
Itching with burn sensation can occur due to infection or it could be a normal reaction as you have mentioned that you had just shaved.Sweat could be causing the itch.
Try to keep the local site dry by using neosporin powder or candid B powder.
If complains does not decrease consult a dermatologist.
Thanks and regards.
