HELP my vagina HURTS - it's red and swollen and OUCH?

Question

I'm not looking for a diagnosis at this point but I've been having vaginal issues lately and intercourse just made it way way way worse. Does anyone have any fast-acting solutions to make the pain stop? I've tried Ibuprofen and vagisil and hydrocortisone cream

Answer 1

You could try an ice pack to the area or a sitz bath in your bath tub (this is a special kind of bath for the area of the vagina and rectum that can help different problems such as this). I use baking soda in mine when I do them but some use epsom salts.

The reason I suggest ice though is because that can be like a numbing agent.

I would recommend though that you make an appt with your dr to have this looked at.

Answer 2

sounds like a yeast infection to me. Hurts when you pee and itches too? If so, go see your doctor if it is your first infection, otherwise, go and talk to a pharmacist.
