Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to yeast infection most likely. A swab test will be helpful to rule out the condition. For such case i would recommend using clotrimazole cream for local application. This is available as over the counter in brands like monistat. You can also use intimate wash daily to normalize vaginal bacterial flora and PH which will help to prevent getting further infections.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
