Itching in vagina
Since the past three days i have been facing a lot of itching in my vagina. a few days ago i discovered a pimple on the lips of my vagina and during its healing process it started itching and i tried to touch it a few times with my nails after that i have been facing the itchiness regularly. yesterday night i saw thick white discharge in my vaginal opening and i have been treating it with castor oil and it does helps me sooth the itchiness for a while. could this be a yeast infection? and how can this be cured at home?

Castor oil won't help.
Wear cotton undergarments.
Wash intimate area properly and pat it dry.
For infection treatment kindly consult.
