What Causes Slimy Discharge And Redness In Vagina?

My 6 year old daughter has been having a slimy discharge from her vagina, the other day she said it burned when she peed and I looked and she was very red on her lips and I assumed the urine was burning her lips I put ointment on it and she never complained about it burning again but she still has the slimy discharge and its been going on for about a month. What could this be?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

Infective causes must be ruled out. A culture and sensitivity study of the discharge is required and antibiotics must be started according to the culture results. Nothing much to worry and most cases respond well to antibiotics.

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

Take care

Regards,
