Can i use salt and water to cure a vaginal infection ?

Not of help: Consult your PCP (primary care provider) to get proper diagnosis and treatment. Be advised that rinsing or cleaning out the vagina (douching) changes the chemical balance in the vagina, which can make you more likely to get infection.
