: Are you wearing tight clothing? Something like that could cause some minor irritation. In order to suggest treatment, a diagnosis needs to be made. If your clothing is tight, lower clothing may relieve the irritation. If this continues, see your doctor to examine you and decide on a treatment. Your gynecologist may be very helpful. Good luck!
