I'm a virgin and haven't had any sexual contact for awhile, so I know this isn't an STD or result of sexual things. I was itching something fierce down there though, and had felt vaguely sore around my actual vaginal hole for about a day or so. I was going into the kitchen for something when I noticed that something felt strange when I was walking. I checked, and my inner right labia was swollen pretty bad. It wasn't painful, it didn't itch, it's just swollen. I tried a cold compress but that didn't do anything. I went to sleep for awhile, and the swelling has gone down a little bit, but not all the way. It still isn't painful, and there isn't any burning when I urinate, and there's no strange discharge. It's not itching or sore anymore either. I don't want to go to a gyno, as I'm not on health insurance at the moment. What could it be?

I'm having the same problem. I go in for regular paps and no doctor has ever said anything is wrong and this has happened to me multiple times.

Since the itch and swelling went away on its own (which doesn’t mean it can’t come back – that’s why you’ll have to watch for it) it’s probably not vaginitis. Vaginitis is basically inflammation of vaginal area which can be caused by yeast, bacteria or STD. Since bacterial infection wouldn’t just go away, yeast are, with irritation of the area, most likely reason for itching of your labia. Some types of yeast normally live in vagina, they don’t cause any problems and are useful in most cases. Yeast infections do come with whiteish discharge, but not always. And labia swell because of the irritation and itching – tissue there is very sensitive. Simple yeast cream can help.

My inner labia has been itching a lot, and my vagina hole is closed because some red tissue is blocking it. What should I do?
