A member asked:

I have been having itching and possible chafing (a little blood when i wipe) mostly in the lower region of the vagina near the anus. what's wrong?

Many possible causes: Examples would be a vaginal infection, such as yeast or trichomoniasis, herpes; a problem in the rectum such as hemorrhoids; a vaginal fissure (like a paper cut). The best way to find out is to get an exam by an ob/gyn. Best wishes!

Need to examine: From your description is not clear if the bleeding is from the vagina or the anus. It is more likely to be from the anus due to hemorrhoids. While not urgent, you should see your doctor for an examination and appropriate treatment, depending on the lesion.
