hi a few months ago i had symptoms similar to a yeast infection.

burning on my vulva but no itching, thick white discharge with no odour and occasionally cottage cheese discharge. and a white coating on the exterior of my vulva.

the burning was unbearable.

anyway. after a few days the redness went around my vulva leading to this

is is possible the fungus did that.??

(i wasn't shaved there but after i did i saw the rash - no itch just burning.- and i went away after a few days but only after i shaved.)
