My name is Timberlyn, I'm 15, NOT sexually active, and experiencing something I find to be absolutely terrifying.
Wednesday Evening: I noticed I had a slight cough and was feeling a bit dizzy.
Thursday Morning: I'm practically in tears, not being able to breathe because I'm coughing so much, and I have a higher temperature that normal for the majority of the day until it begins to range from hot to cold. My mom gives me medicine and I feel pretty much better.
Friday Morning: (Note: Before peeing I noticed I was quite dry down there.) I wake up, go to the washroom (I felt no pain what-so-ever while peeing.) and everything seems fine until I wipe, in which it starts to sting quite noticeably. The sting is a bit dull and only really bothers me in the slightest when I shift my legs, stand or sit. Worried, I grabbed a small mirror, turned on the bathroom light and examined myself. I suppose my eyes were still adjusted the the dark and all I saw was some slight reddish irritation, which didn't seem like anything all that major.
Friday Late Afternoon: After checking again, to find two rectangular strips of what strongly resembles scabbing on the inside of my lips, and a very red, stinging and irritated vagina. It's still quite dry.
If anyone knows what this is or if it's very serious, and if I should seek medical help ASAP, please tell me, I'm absolutely terrified. I have had nothing like this happen to me before.

Hi there,
It sounds like Candida or similar yeast or fungal infection. You can get those without being sexually active (having no sexual activity at all). I wasn't and I got a nasty one. The burning could be that or a urinary tract infection. Definitely, definitely see a doctor as you sound like you have an infection. If you feel more comfortable seeing a female doctor then that helps.
Nothing they won't have seen before I'm sure.
Pls let us know if you're ok?
