What Is The Cause Of Swollen, Red, Burning And Painful Vagina And Anus?

I recently had a uti and was also treated for a yeast infection. I'm not sure if it was the medicine or what but my vagina is bringing me to tears. It is swollen on the outside, the lips are bright red and tender and the bottom party between my vagina and anus is swollen. It's red, burns, keeps me up at night, tender, hurts to sit or walk. I need help

Hi,

Symptoms you have mentioned may be due to allergic reaction or vulvovaginitis or cellulitis. Among these cellulitis is most probable cause as it is closly related to symptoms and area involved. Immediate treatment should be started with antibiotic like ciprofloxacin/ cefexime, NSAIDs like ibuprofen and antihistamins like Loratidine/ levocetrizine.
Maintain a proper hygiene of the area and look out if there is any pus point. Delay may result in abscess which will require surgical drainage.
