my vagina hurts right by the opening and the skin between the anus and vagina what could be the problem i recently self treated for a yeast infection?

Question

Can a basic yeast infection cause very painful swelling and cracks in between my labia and on the skin between my vagina and anus?

Answer 1

Needs to be seen: Let your doctor look at it for you. It may be a different type of infection, such as an abscess. Make an appointment and have it seen. All the best.

Answer 2

So close to birth: Hi are you ready? This sounds like your uterus is preparing to begin labor. The frustrating part is that we cannot predict how long this transition phase will take before you are in active labor. But, you are getting closer. Congratulations.

Answer 3

Peristomal wound: When i see a patient who has difficulties with peristomal wound or pain, i generally try to ascertain cause. Usually, if there is no underlying pathology, the skin is irritated by the adhesive. Using a hydrocolloid dressing beneath the adhesive may reduce the difficulties.

Answer 4

Peristomal Skin: Often times if the adhesive of the colostomy appliance is not flush against the colostomy stool will leak out from the colostomy onto the skin causing a severe burning and irritation of the surrounding skin. Always make sure that the colostomy appliance is flush with the colostomy without any exposed skin. Special creams and powders can also be used to help ease the burning.

Answer 5

Thick nasal mucus: Thick nasal mucus can be related to sinusitis, but not necessarily. If you have chronic allergies or recurrent infections you should consult a doctor who can identify if there is an opportunity to improve nasal inflammation with sprays or treat infection with antibiotics. You may benefit from good nasal hygiene as well which involves using salt water rinses to clear mucus and allergens.

Answer 6

Sometimes: A ct scan will show the ovaries in the pelvis. Only significant and sometimes advanced changes of ovarian cancer such as excess fluid in the pelvis may be noticeable.

Answer 7

MAYBE: Although a contrast-enhanced ct--or, better still, a pelvic ultrasound--are preferred methods for visualizing the ovaries, a non-contact ct would likely show nonspecific irregularities of the ovaries. Bottom line: pelvic ultrasound is the best choice for visualizing ovaries.

Answer 8

Not usually: A much better test to detect ovarian cancer would be a transvaginal ultrasound.

Answer 9

Not necessarily...: Seeing ovarian cancer or not from ct without contrast is less desirable and accurate. But if an ovarian cancer is big and calcified, it can be easily suspected as how it may look. But, following the specific ct protocol for a specific suspected tumor so to have better visualization and diagnosis is highly recommended. Detail? Ask radiologist.

Answer 10

AURI: Auri is respiratory tract infection and bronchitis, elevation of liver enzymes and functions involve the GI tract or system.
