Hi, you need to meet gynaecologist first, if it is fungal infection, can be cured easily. You can clean with lactacyd vaginal wash.

Dear Ma'am,
You need to consult a Gynaecologist for a detailed history and a thorough clinical examination. In the meanwhile, please use simple vulval hygiene measures like avoidance of excessive soaps, perfumes, hair removal creams, keeping the area clean dry,wearing loose-fitting and frequent underwear changes.
Regards,
Aditi
