I have an itchy rash on the outside of my vagina on the right-hand side for over a week. I think it is an allergic reaction to a soap I used. I need to know how to treat this.

My mom has been experiencing itchiness in her vaginal area for about 2 weeks, with some skin breaks near the vulva. She has a history of breast cancer in remission and is on tamoxifen. I noticed a cherry angioma near the vaginal opening and took a photo. Is this something to be concerned about, and should we seek earlier attention?

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?

I am experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially when walking, and frequent, painful urination. There is also an odor. How old are you? How long has this been a concern? Are you using any medications? Is there anything else in your medical history that the doctor should know?
