What Could Be The Reason For Having A Discharge And Inflammation Of Clitoris?

I haven't had a period since April 2011 but I just took it as going through the change of life. I'm 43 years of age. It's been three days and now my clitros is inflammed and it's difficult to move around because I feel very uncomfortable and it burns. I'm trying to deal with it but now I have light color pink discharge that scared me. I'm not sexually active at all.

Hi,

It could be due to constant rubbing by tight rough material panties/vaginal unhygienic. Please have careful vaginal cleaning with clean warm water. Make it dry. Use smooth and loose hosiery underwear. Apply Sofracort ointment gently. Take over the counter Combiflam after food. Consult a gynecologist, in case of no relief in 3 days for antibiotic prescription.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha, General & Family Physician
