Hi all

Yesterday evening my vagina started feeling quite sore I suffer from vulva excema diagnosed by a dermatologist but I don’t know if it’s that.

This morning I woke up and it was really sore it was mainly my inner labia.. I had a look and it was bloody huge red and swollen. I have just came off my period and I have to use cotton pads as the normal ones irritate my excema.

I put the cream on I usually use for it and it did nothing.. I then tried some thrush cream I had in the drawer and it soothed it very quickly and the swelling has gone down.

But it’s still a bit irritated and I’ve had a look down there this evening and I have like red patches that looks like sores/cuts.

They don’t itch just are a bit sore to touch but they are kind of weeping ??

Not sure if this is thrush my excema or something else.. I have bad dermatitis on my scalp sometimes that can kind of weep it I don’t use my steriod shampoo for a long time

Anyone ??

Thanks

I've just had a swab back for thrush well I think it is, I can't understand what the jargon means, I have no symptoms
