You can also have a yeast infection, when you are on antibiotics most women get yeast infections after being on a course of antibiotics. I worked in an obgyn office for 4 years. Def get it checked out, it won't go away on its own. They have a pill that treats it or a cream that goes in vaginally.
I have the same problem. But only the left side is swollen. The rest isn't and it seems like after I take a shower it's fine. But I shower like twice a day! Any advice?
It may be a yeast infection or an oti
I AM AT MY WITT'S END WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS. TRY USING LISTERINE. IT COOLS AND CLEANS THE AREA. IT IS AN OLD HOMEOPATHIC REMEDY THAT I READ ABOUT. I HAS GIVEN ME SOME RELIEF.
TRY A TABLET OF BENEDRYL. IT HELPS YOU SLEEP WITHOUT THE ITCHING;
I went to the doctors a few wks ago and was told that I had Bacteria Vaginosis..They gave me some antibiotics and now that I'm cured of that, I have a freakin yeast infection!! Red, itchy, swollen and cream cheesy:(.. They gave me a little pink pill to take (Diflucan) That's the queen of monistat I'm assuming. Not really feeling different yet.I'm praying it works tho!! GOOD LUCK LADIES
it's ok when i was little i had it all the time!!! you don't need to see the doctor or anything just put a little vasaline on the area with a q-tip and it will just go away
I had a Yeast infection not to long ago and I think I may have one again.. Anyways the symptom that on had that made me positive it was yeast was that I had a cottage cheese like discharge or really thick white discharge especially when I had sex. Hope I helped.(:
I have similar symptoms. One side of my vaginal lip is super swollen and itchy and burns and now i see a weird freckle that showed up. I dont know what it could possibly be. :(
Had an IUD placed 6 wks ago, went back to Dr a few weeks ago for check up & everything fine, last pap was normal too. All of a sudden very itchy down there and swollen so bad could hardly walk! Got an anti biotic for bacteria infection, that didn't help so went to Dr & initial lab results came back normal - no bacteria, no yeast, no trich. I was shocked and scared when the nurse practioner told me it looks like herpes even though there are no sores or blisters. The Dr came in & said it looked more like a skin infection but they took my blood to test at the lab to rule out herpes and other STI's. Well the itch and swollen area are so bad they're treating me with keflex & veltrex just in case while we wait for the test results. Relief from warm salt water baths and drying off really well with blow dryer and I'm using a lidocaine jelly to help the itch. Wearing no underwear or loose fitting cotton I think helps. I also picked up some rephresh capsules at the store to get some good bacteria back in me while I'm taking the anti biotics. Also lots of water & eating healthy, even though I don't have much of an appetite. The symptoms that everyone is talking about are not "normal". If your genitals are inflamed and swollen and itchy definetly get a simple lab test at the Dr or ED to rule out everything before just assuming it's yeast because these symptoms could be so many different things. I initially thought I had a bacteria infection and it wasn't.
I'm 20 weeks pregnant and I'm really really itchy and one of my lips on my vagina is huge and swollen , its very irritated and I'm having lot of discharge I was wondering is these a YEAST????
would this be bad if a 16 year old has it? because one night I had my period and woke up with it and ever since then it gets worse.
how did any of u guys get checked? what did they have to do to check?
Could b chlamydia.. the white crusty stuff sounds like that to me as I had that b4
I had also the same problem but two weeks later I foud out I was pregnant I had it so month ago but haven't got the guts to test
