What can i do to bring vulva swelling down and stop the burning?

Vulvitis: requires a GYN exam. You may have a fungal, bacterial or Barhtolin cyst infection. You can try antifungal cream like Ministat or Gyne-Lotrimin until seen; however, you must be seen and examined.

Depends on the cause: In general, ice packs can help treat the symptom but you also need to find and address the cause of the swelling and burning.
