Burning and swollen vagina

5 replies

For the last few days I’ve had a burning in my lower vagina. Finally took a look at it last night and not sure what to make of it. Someone on Reddit described theirs as a predators mouth and that seems a pretty good description! Inside at the opening there are maybe four swollen lumps at the opening so can’t see beyond them. I have had an IBS flare up recently so perhaps to do with that and blood flow or something but who knows. Anyone any ideas and could suggest an at home remedy during the long wait for a doctors appointment? No idea what’s going on and utterly fed up after all the IBs stuff as well

Have you tried a thrush treatment, like Canesten? Internal pessary/ cream plus external cream to sooth.

I should have also said over the last few days also felt on and off constantly aroused physically up there, but not due to any actual desire. Totally depressed rather than in the mood! Maybe that’s linked to the swelling

@Swissrollover no not yet but going out this morning to stock up so I will get some. It’s not something I’ve ever had trouble with before really so don’t have any in
