No worries: Having a yeast infection can offer cause tenderness. If you treated the yeast infection with medication then it is possible that the yeast infection has not completely cleared up. Another possibility after treating a yeast infection is development of bacterial vaginosis. If you develop itching and/or an odor then you should be checked. Just wait a few days and see if the stinging resolved.

Stinging: Candida yeast infections can cause the labia to become very irritated and also sting. Diflucan (fluconazole) tablets with topical nystatin ointment help. Over the counter medications are not as effective.
