Raw feeling

[havefaith427]

I have a raw feeling in my lady area right by the opening sorry tmi... its really itchy too. I took a mirror to look and I do not see any sores.. Could it just be a yeast infection? It hurts really bad to sit or walk... I started taking the Valtrex the other day and have been putting tea tree oil. But since its near my opening down there, it hurts and stings badly. I hate this... If this is an ob then I have an ob for a month long now, just not in the same areas of course. I am supposed to go see my bf this weekend since hes stationed in va but I want to be able to be intimate with him since we barely get to... I'm really disappointed right now...

It also doesn't help that I shaved completely down there and have razor burn adding to the pain

[havefaith427]

I wish someone would answer soon. I'm seriously dying in pain here. Can you get a sore right inside the vagina opening? Has it happened to any of you and if so what did you do? I will be house sitting this week and will not be able to soak in a tub especially with Epson salts or oatmeal. I need help terribly

Sounds like a yeast infection to me ... I'd get to your Dr and get some Difulcan and see how that works ... and find some really GOOD quality yogurt (preferably locally produced so the cultures are LIVE ) and eat plenty of that ... I would also look up "Yeast Free Diet" ... you may be eating too much sugar-based foods which allows the yeast to take over your system :(

Ohhhh yeah that could be it... I have been eating a lot more sweets lately and I never used to. Thank you SO much for answering me. I'm in a lot of pain right now. My poor vagina... yeast infection, getting over a 2 week outbreak (but with no meds :)) and also razor burn. My lady friend probably hates me right now lol!!! My obgyn has sent me over some meds for me. and I think I'm going to put aloe cream on the razor burn and hopefully that helps.

I remember having yeast infections and bladder infections a lot when I was younger... itched so bad all I wanted to do was to take a hairbrush to my lady bits... thankfully I don't seem to get that any more...

[havefaith427]

Omg I know!!! It itches soooo bad but now it feels so raw and hurts so bad! I can barely stand it

You can also insert yogurt into the vagina for yeast. Not greek just plain yogurt. Had a few obgyns recommend it.

[WCSDancer2010]

I've heard that before too - but most yogurt is so over processed today that it's not high in the *right* cultures ... if you do that, try to go to a health food store and get something that is locally produced ... read the label and see if it has more than one LIVE probiotic culture in it. That will give you a much better result.

I take acidophilus when I used to have yeast infections....did wonders.

 

I will up the dosage when I had yeast infections and then go down to maintenance dosage when I didn't. It really helped. Check out ur health food store.

Thank you ladies so much. I took diflucan and put on a cream. I feel about 80% better so I'm thinking it had to be a yeast infection

Glad you're feeling better!

Just for future reference, you can get an OB right outside of the opening and inside the actual vagina. That's where mine started. It ended up getting really swollen and I could barely sit or walk.

Try drinking Kefir too! I drink Lifeway Kefir its a powerful probiotic drink that tastes like yogurt and it contains 12 live active cultures that helps regulate the yeast and bactera in your body as well as your lady parts. It also has many other health benefits too such as fighting off infections and even preventing certain cancers. I've noticed it works far better than antibiotics which usually causes yeast infections for me. I also read a few articles stating Kefir helps with Herpetic outbreaks as well. So definitely worth giving a try.

eating a lot of radish helps with infections in and around the urinary tract.
