Try : Try over the counter oral Benadryl (diphenhydramine) for the itching and inflammation. There is a chance you may be dealing with an infectious process versus an allergic reaction. An anti-fungal vaginal cream is not a bad idea since your symptoms are consistent with a yeast infection although they are different from what you experienced before. You should be evaluated by your doctor if your symptoms worsen or persist. If it is a severe allergic reaction then a short course of steroids is in order; your doctor will be able to make a diagnosis and give appropriate treatment. Good luck.

Dermatologist: Stop having intercourse until this heals and get in to see a dermatologist.

See GYN: Or dermatologist. Reaction to EXACTLY WHICH "anti-itch" cream? Was it a reaction to the cream or was it part of a chronic vaginitis? Yeast or something else? How was yeast treated? Since you "have no clue" see a pro who probably will have a clue. When you call, be clear that you are in distress and require immediate attention.
