Have I got thrush/yeast infection?

It started out a few days ago with a tiny pain in my clitoris, it felt like a splinter or sharp hair had gotten in and was irritating it. It's gradually got worse, yesterday I noticed I was quite red and swollen, and today I'm itching like MAD. In the past 2 hours it's suddenly got so much worse and feels like it's spread down to the opening. Is this thrush/yeast infection? How can I relieve the itching? I'm very stressed and run down at the moment and fighting strep throat, so I heard this things can up your chances of getting it.

You need to get yourself to a pharmacy and get some cream and a pessary tablet (for internal use, not to be taken orally) . Or go and see your doc and ask them to recommend one you can use.
Wear 100% cotton panties and wear a skirt instead of pants just now. It will make it more comfortable.

Cranberry juice and pro biotic yogurts can prevent yeast infections from occurring. They commonly happen if you have just come off a course of antibiotics. This is when it happened to me.

Hi,

It certainly sounds like a yeast infection.

Yeast infections are so common its ridiculous and they always seem to come at the worse times. I had it for 6 months at one point which was a real low point and I hated the idea of using all those chemicals so I did some research on the internet and found one particular website so useful since it was completely natural!

In my experience it has been the only thing that got rid of my infection for good!

Good luck hun!

a yeast infection mostly occurs from an over abundance of yeast which grows in moist damp areas most likely inside of your vagina. if your clitoris is itching, and theres redness, for the time being, you should try sitting in a warm sitz bath with a bit of lavendar oil (to ease the itching). then i would definitely see a dr.

All advice given is good, see a doctor, but know that inserting a peeled clove or garlic really does combat yeast infections very effectivly. Even if your doctor shurgs and says it's an old wives tale or something, it works. Eating lots of garlic is helpful too.

I recommend you to visit a phisician's forum, called wortix.com., there you'll be able to ask this issue, it seems to be very serious, remember wortix.com

sounds like one
you can buy over the counter meds for this

You should definitely go see your doctors.

You need to see your doctor. Until then, eat a container of yogurt daily and drink plenty of water.
