Hello dear
I understand your concern
It could be a vaginits/vulvovaginitis/vaginal infections.
I would suggest to consult the gynecologist and undergo urine test and vaginal swab test to confirm the cause.
Doctor will give following advises:
Use vaginal suppository of clingen
Wash vagina with warm salted water and then apply apple cidar vinegar
Wear pure cotton loose innerrs
Application of mild steroids application also help to relieve redness and soreness.
Avoid perfumed soap and cosmetics.
Keep the area clean and dry
Maintain proper pelvic hygiene by using V-vaginal plus wash
Hope this may help you
