A member asked:

What does it mean when the vagina is swollen and red ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yeast infection?: A yeast infection is the most common cause of this but there are many other causes such as herpes, trauma, Bartholin Gland cysts, etc. You might try and over-the-counter yeast medication but if that doesn't work you will need an exam. Best wishes!
