forget your boyfriend for a minute.
fix this for YOU. go to the local walk in clinic or (if they actually charge you there!!!???!!!) go to the local planned parenthood for help.
this sounds like some kind of infection that needs to be treated IMMEDIATELY!
if it's a yeast infection, it's easily treatable. if it's an STD, that's a whole other ball of wax... and involves testing for both you AND your boyfriend.
good luck to you!

You need to 1st and formost consider learning new hygiene techniques but on that note ...
The yellow/green means infection wether that be an STD or just a yeast in fection or bactieral either way you deffinetly have an infection. There is NO way of knowing for sure what it is until you are seen.
If you have no insurance go to the health department you can be seen for free. They can do immediate cultures on you and get you treated for lilttle to nothing at all.
The pain and swelling are also signs of STDs rather than just and infection such as a yeast or bactieral. Therefore you need to make that visit with your boyfriend or loose him because if you have an STD or Infection he now has it there is NO way he cant if you have ever .... had sex therefore if you are seen and treated and he is not and you then after being treated have sex with him again condom or not you will just reinfect yourself all over again.

Yellow/green and smelly discharge is often a sign of some kind of infection. Sometimes they're sexually transmitted infections, sometimes not.
Where you live will affect where you can go to get it checked out-Planned Parenthood is a good place to start, or the county health department. If you're a student at a college or university, you may have a student health service that can provide low cost or free health care to you.

That doesn't sound like a yeast infection. It sounds like an STD. You really need to get that checked out. If you don't have insurance, you should look into a clinic or woman's center where they may be able to set you up with free or reduced care. Good Luck and take it seriously. If you can't get free care, pay the bill. You probably need some type of medicine to clear it up.

You need to "fix" it for yourself and not worry about your boyfriend at this time. YOU are the one with the problem, and it is serious enough to seek medical care. It sounds as if you have a vaginal or pelvic infection. You need treatment right away if you have pain and swelling.
Is there a county health facility in your area? Is there a women's health department? You could call and ask them who to see if you have no insurance or money for a physician's visit.
Bottom line: This will not go away by itself. If will get worse if not treated. You need medical attention. Period. Good luck.

sounds like you have some type of an infection or an std.. see a doctor... about everywhere has clinics or local health units for low income or people who cannot afford health insurance.
they allow you to pay what you can afford.. they can do this because they are government funded.
do not mess around with this... if you let it go it could cause you to not be able to have future children. Go to the doctor immediately.

You have what sounds like a bacterial infection. You need medical treatment to get rid of it. Call around local health clinics or planned parenthoods, most are free or are based on your income. It needs to be treated by a doctor to go away.

You need to see a doc ASAP and get this infection diagnosed and treated. Never mind if you do or don't have insurance as left untreated some infections can cause PID and land you in the hospital which will cost more than seeing a doc will now.

Just relax. Kiss him in an unexpected moment and if he asks about before, just tell him you wanted it to be perfect and spontaneous. Oh, and by the way, don't wear too much lipgloss, it causes... er... slidy stickiness and isn't great! :D SOmething matt and subtle is best or even better, none at all! Good luck honey! xx

Planned Parenthood. They will test you for everything you want and all they ask is for a donation. They're the best!
