I don't know where to start with his really. Not too long had my third dc. Since I had him I have felt like my skin was irritated, mainly on one side of my labia, although the feeling does move around a little. It is a mild tingly, annoying feeling. Enough for me to be conscious of it but it doesn't wake me at night, isn't itchy, no smell, nothing visible on the skin aside from all of the skin down there maybe looks a little dry.
It usually bothers me slightly for a few days once a month and then goes away. I have tried canestan on the area at various points and it helps after one or two applications so I stop. I have put it down to possibly dryness or maybe hormonal because I am breastfeeding. I've used some hydromol down there and that helps too quite quickly.
I felt like the feeling had come back and in the process of having a look down there I noticed that my urethra looks to have droped and is now a bulge where there was once a flat area. I can also see a largeish ball type bulge next to it. I would say at the entrance to my vagina but in all honesty I can't tell where the entrance is anymore . I just have the slightly bulgy urethra and the biggish fleshy bulge next to it and then another smaller fleshy bulge. I think it looks like I have prolapse or some kind? I'm not sure if it is the vaginal walls hanging down or something else.
Anyway, I had a bit more of a root round to see if I can see what is causing the irritation and when I look underneath the inner labia, there is a distinct almost perfect line lengthsways between pink skin and very very red looking skin. I am wondering if this is what is causing the irritation or whether it is just a normal change in the skin colour in that area. When I touch the red area it feels a bit tender but not hugely painful.
Anyone with a prolapse or otherwise have any knowledge of this? Does this colour sound normal or abnormal?
