Itching near and around vaginal opening
I am itching around my vaginal opening from 2-3 days . when I wash that area it vanishes for some hour but again starts .suggest some otc or ointment to get rid of it
Itching that comes and goes with washing often points to a mild vaginal or vulval infection such as candidiasis, but it can also be irritation from soaps or tight clothing.
Next Steps
Please see a gynaecologist for a quick examination so the right treatment can be started for you.
Health Tips
Avoid scented washes or wipes in that area until you're seen, plain water is safest.
