Answers:
You suffer from Vaginitis!.

Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vagina that can result in discharge, itching and pain!. The cause is usually a change in the normal balance of vaginal bacteria or an infection!. Vaginitis can also result from reduced estrogen levels after menopause!.

The most common types of vaginitis are:

* Bacterial vaginosis!. This type of vaginitis results from overgrowth of one of several organisms normally present in your vagina, upsetting the natural balance of vaginal bacteria!. More than one in six pregnant women in the United States has bacterial vaginosis, though many aren't aware of it!.
* Yeast infections!. A naturally occurring fungus called Candida albicans usually causes this type of vaginitis!. An estimated three out of four women will have a yeast infection in their lifetime!.
* Trichomoniasis!. This type is caused by a parasite and is commonly transmitted by sexual intercourse!.
* Atrophic vaginitis!. This type results from reduced estrogen levels after menopause!. The vaginal tissues become thinner and drier, which may lead to itching, burning or pain!.

Treatment depends on the type of vaginitis you have!.

The type of medication used for vaginitis treatment depends on which type you have:

* Bacterial vaginosis!. For this type of vaginitis, your doctor may prescribe metronidazole (Flagyl, MetroGel) or clindamycin (Cleocin) as tablets or vaginal gels or creams!.
* Yeast infections!. Yeast infections usually are treated with an antifungal cream or suppository, such as miconazole (Monistat) and clotrimazole (Gyne-Lotrimin)!. Yeast infections may also be treated with an oral antifungal medication, such as fluconazole (Diflucan)!. The advantages of over-the-counter treatment for a yeast infection are convenience, cost and not having to wait to see your doctor!. The catch is you may be treating something other than a yeast infection!. It's possible to mistake a yeast infection for other types of vaginitis or other conditions that need different treatment!. Using the wrong medicine may delay a proper diagnosis and the most appropriate treatment, and can lead to complications!.
* Trichomoniasis!. Your doctor may prescribe metronidazole (Flagyl) tablets!.
* Atrophic vaginitis!. Estrogen, in the form of vaginal creams, tablets or rings, can effectively treat atrophic vaginitis!. This treatment is available by prescription from your doctor!.
* Noninfectious vaginitis!. To treat this type of vaginitis, you need to pinpoint the source of the irritation and avoid it!. Possible sources include new soap, laundry detergent, sanitary napkins or tampons!.

It is better to see a gynecologist and have the assessment and treatement depending on the veginites!. -Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would recomend seeing a doctor about the problem!. If it is uncomfortable to sit, walk and excersize, than you might have a problem, although it could also be nothing just an irritation to the vagina, I've had irritations too where it itches and one side swells after itching it, that just means that you inflamed the irritated area!.

If it is an STD it is something that you need to figure out before it gets worse!.

This is my advise and I would also reccomened doing research on this too, look for a a good doctor and get yourself tested!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There are creams or a pill for this!. Best is pass your pharmacy and privately ask this question!. She will give you cream and you will fill cool down!. Sometimes this happens before period as well, sometimes depends what body soap you showered with which may be perfumed too much and you feel this, or sometimes it may be from sex, or infection!. Best is see the doctor, but first if you are embaressed, speak to a pharmisist!. good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

you could have a case of bacterial vaginosis you need to have some smears taken and depending on the findings the doctor will give you some diflucan and some metro-gel it will deffently helpWww@Answer-Health@Com
