Redness in public area and itching vagina
Posted , 4 users are following.
Sorry for the long story ahead of time.
I've been having issues for about 5-6 months now regarding itching and soreness of my vulva. I had unprotected sex with a guy back in october 2019 and should have suspected something was up since the head of his penis seemed inflamed and purple in colour. I got really sick a week after the encounter and had what i believed to be a yeast infection in which i treated myself with monistat. also a couple weeks later my ex who i had gotten with again unprotected after the october encounter started getting symptoms that he thought was a yeast infection but he did home remedies and it apparently went away. I continued to be sick with swollen tonsils, swollen lymph nodes in neck and just an overall sick feeling in which i was hospitalized cuz i felt faintish due to the fact i could no longer eat with my tonsils so painful and swollen. they did swabs and everything came back negative (mono, strep, tonsillitis & chlamydia/gon) so they never found out what i even had. after the hospitalization i was still having itching problems so i got tested and was negative bv yeast chlamydia and gon but a week after i got tested the man i got with tested positive for chlamydia and he swore he hadnt been with anyone after me so i decided to get tested again to which everything was still negative but they still treated me for chlamydia to be safe. a couple weeks after i still had itching so i went to get tested again and i was positive for bv and a week after that was positive again for bv as i had figured due to having a weird smell both times before testing for it. now i have no smells or weird discharge, i decided to go off my birth control to see if that mightve been the issue since it all arose right after starting it. i've only had itching and just a burning feeling as well as alot of redness amd my sebeacous glands and fordyce spots have become very prominent. i cant see a doctor or gyno right now because of covid but i'm nervous it maybe be something serious because of my flu like symptoms i experienced to begin. I've tried canestan and hydrocortisone but none seem to do anything.
thank you for taking the time to read.
also the brown splotches seen in the first pic are just collections of fake tanner

You might be having a yeast infection. Besides that, nothing strange on the photos.

it just seems odd pain comes and goes and i dont think ive changed anything in my routine that would cause a yeast infection and i havent had sex since the first time i started getting sore and itchy 6 months ago.
it used to be more itchy but now it feels more like nerve pains and just a raw feeling when i touch
