Maybe it's a yeast infection or urinary tract infection or allergic reaction. You should try to talk to someone, it sounds like you should see a doctor. Best wishes. Don't be embarressed about taking care of yourself!

This is a diagnosis to be made by a Physician - no one here can do that for you.

A Pharmacist MIGHT recommend a product but if you have another problem that recommendation might make your symptoms worse.

How old are you?

You definitely should talk to a doctor. If you have a UTI and let it go on then you could cause some serious problems for yourself, such as a kidney infection. I know its embarrassing, but it could could get a whole lot worse before better depending on what it is. Symptom Checker from WebMD. Check Your Medical Symptoms.

It looks like it's a yeast infection. Vaginal area seems too acidic, the pH should be balanced. You can try those creams for yeast infections such as vagisil cream. If it gets worse, make sure to go see a Doctor. Do not wait! If there is a severe bacteria infection, it can lead up to pelvic inflammatory disease.......

Using cream for a yeast infection if there IS no yeast infection can also be dangerous. It can mask the symptoms or allow an infection, if that is the case, to go untreated.

Oh gosh girl don't be embarrassed, doctors have seen more hoo-has than you can dare to imagine...

I myself was extremely embrassed having to go get an exam when I was having problems with my vagina, after I had been once it was fine... the doctors make you feel very comfortable, and it's over within a minute, just a swab and a quick examination.

Never be afraid to go to the doctor, I would rather be checked out by a doctor for something small than wait around and not go in case it turns out to be something more serious.

I'm not sure how old you are, but have you been to a gynecologist before? I was so nervous when I went the first time, but you'd be surprised at how fast it's over. Like Shaz said, the doctors make sure you don't feel uncomfortable. It's their profession.

They may not even exam you right off or at all, they may do lap work first.

I assume you mean lab work - but that would require a swab so I would say there would still be an examination.

Not if they take a urine sample, which is likey what they do if they thought it was a UTI, or at least in my experience.

She has vagina pain - someone else added that it "might" be an UTI.

Hopefully she'll come back and tell us she went to a Doctor and let us know what the problem is.

My feeling is that the OP is young and doesn't want to discuss this with her parents, which she would need to do in order to get to the Doctor's office if for no other reason.

amIwrong · Oct 2, 2009, 10:44 AM

I agree with the earlier statement that it might be a UTI, among several other things. The doctor will determine the best course of action which they will likely think to test for a UTI first or yeast infection (exam), I am guessing based on the symptoms and no sexual history. I agree it's probably the parents that are likely the most embarrassing factor. This conversation has outlived itself beyond the question, no matter what we say we can't make confidence happen for someone else.

Please come back and let us know - I am somewhat confused about the vagina pain and a kidney infection and hopefully you can enlighten me.
