sorry if tmi.

DD is complaining about itchy bits & bum and it seems slightly red as far as I can make out she won't let me have a proper look without me actually having to restrain her which I don't want to do.

She's quite 'stinky' in a fishy kind of way.

Could it be thrush, or just something she ate? Dont' really want to subject her to gp probing iykwim as she seems to just have entered a phase where 'nobody is allowed to see my popo/bits/knickers' etc.

Any suggestions?

Could be thrush, but if there is a smell it could be a bacterial infection, with a child this age best to see the doctor to make sure. I know its not ideal but really the only way to get the right treatment. If unsure phone the doctor first and see what they recommend.
