What Does Itching Around The Vagina Indicate?

Hi I m 21 years old female. I ve been. Experiencing some itchiness around my labia minora and around my anus. There has been no unusual discharge but i did find two tiny holes around my labia minora. This is my main concern. I do have hpv that causes genital warts but i m scared it might be something else as the warts haven t appeared. I ve also been using shaving cream for the legs in that area because of limited options where I m from. I ve also taken medicine for chlamydia before as recommended by my doctor. But I haven t gotten tested yet, it was to treat the symptoms just in case. What could this be? I m really concerned about the holes i found. They re really tiny. As if someone punctured a pin through my skin but there wasn t any redness or bumps there before. Please help.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query.
I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
These symptoms and signs are suggestive of STD especially if there is associated pain, fever, urethral discharge and recent sexual intercourse. So this is the first thing to rule out by doing STD testing. Second, it may be sign of uroinfection or urinary stones and some other genital infection but this is less common. In every case, antibiotic therapy may be required so test should be done as soon as possible so that appropriate treatment can be started. Till that try to drink plenty of fluids, avoid sexual intercourse and rest.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
