    I have the same problem minus the dryness. Thought it might be a bartholins cyst but it's not. I'm interested to see if anyone has good suggestions for this. Could be contact dermatitis...

    Could be Trichomoniasis Vaginalis?? Are you sexually active?. Trich vag is an STD and you would need to see a doctor to get a prescribed antibiotic medicine Metronidazole.

    I'm guessing you have already used canestan for a possible thrush infection. You dont say how old you are but if you are 50 or above this could just be a menopausal symptom which could be treated with hormone pessaries.

    You need to see a doctor. Have you had swabs taken?

    I did a sitz bath with baking soda that gave me some relief. You could try that but definitely go see your doc.
