Ok, this is quite embarrassing but for the past week or so the inside of my vagina has got progressively more sore, it feels like it is burning inside. My labia seem to be red and swollen. I have normal discharge and no smell. I looked inside and there do seem to be some soft lumps at the entrance but I am assuming these are not connected to the burning as that feels like it is more at the back of the vagina.
I feel a bit dryer than normal down below over the past year or so but have normal, regular periods, a high sex drive and normally produce enough natural lubrication so I am not sure if this could be hormonal/perimenopausal. I am 44.
When I pee it feels hot but doesn't really sting.
I have done a course of BV treatment from Boots as I originally thought it was this but it seemed to make it worse. I have last night done a Canesten pessary and thrush treatment and this seemed to help a bit but now the burning is back.
I cannot get a GP appointment for weeks and when I call to get an appointment on the day they are always already taken.
Does anyone have a clue what this could be? I am in agony!
