What Causes Itching, Redness And Burning Sensation In Vagina?

Hello! My name is Brooke and I m currently a senior in high school. For over a year I ve been having issues with my female area. I ve had itching, redness, and burning after sex and urinating. Sex is painful, so I don t have it with my boyfriend really anymore. My period is frequent, so I have to take birth control pills. I ve been shrugging it off for the past year, but now I m worried. The past week I ve noticed that I have a little bit of greenish looking discharge. Is that a sign of an STD or an infection? I ve been with four sexual partners total. I m starting to freak out.

Hello dear,
Itching , redness, burning sensation , greenish discharge suggest most probably STD, most common due to trichomonas and bacterial vaginosis


Take following advice.

1. Wash your vagina with this water twice a day for two to three days with warm water
2. Apply Apple cider vinegar: it has excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties
3. Salt Bath- Wash your vagina with concentrated salt water whenever you feel the itch. This will give you great relief instantly and prevent further multiplication of bacteria.
4. Antibacterial/fungal talcs: apply candid powder
5. Keeping The Vagina Dry (Not wet, clean well)
6. Wear Loose Clothing
7. Also take antibiotic
You should use following single dose treatment:

1. AZEE 1000 mg (AZITHROMYCIN)
2. TINI 1 G (TINIDAZOLE)
3. ZOCON 150 mg (FLUCONAZOLE)
or you can take tablet metronidazole 400 mg three times a day for three day
Avoid sex and avoid douching till you get better.
Hope this may help you.
Take care and stay healthy.

Best regards
Dr. Sagar
