I’m having swelling at the vaginal opening. I have a photo of it and had a UA done which showed clue cells in my urine, leading to a diagnosis of BV. I was prescribed metrogel-vaginal for 5 days, once daily. My PCP stated that BV can cause swelling, but after taking 3 doses, the swelling hasn’t gone down. Is this swelling normal, caused by BV, or something else?
