Question 1

I've been having some burning and pain down there after some oral and fingering. It even bled a bit after a few days, but I thought maybe that's normal since it was my first time. It's been over a week now, and while it doesn't hurt all the time, the pain and irritation just come and go randomly. Do you think there's something wrong with me?

Accepted Answer

You may have developed a vaginal infection or irritation due to the sexual activity. The symptoms of burning sensation, pain, and occasional bleeding could indicate an infection such as a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis. I recommend using an over-the-counter antifungal medication like Monistat (clotrimazole) for a possible yeast infection. You can also try using a gentle feminine wash like Vagisil to help with irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to see a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.

Question 2

I'm dealing with an intense itching sensation in the area between my vagina and anus, and it's been going on for about a month now. It's really hard to stop scratching and it's becoming quite uncomfortable. Could you guide me on what might be causing this or suggest what I should do?

Accepted Answer

Itching between the vagina and anus can have many causes, including:
Skin conditions: Eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, lichen sclerosus, and lichen simplex chronicus can all cause itching. 
Irritants: Sweat, tight clothing, soaps, perfumes, detergents, and razor burn can all irritate the skin. 
Allergies: An allergic reaction to something in your environment can cause itching. 
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs): Genital herpes, genital warts, HPV, syphilis, and gonorrhea can all cause itching. 
Pinworms: These parasitic worms can cause intense itching at night when females lay their eggs around the anus. 
Yeast infection: A yeast infection in the vagina or anus can cause itching. 
Fecal contamination: Contact with fecal material can cause itching. consult dermatologist

Question 3

I'm 6 weeks pregnant and my blood report shows something called normocytic normochromic anemia. I'm really worried and wondering if this could be a problem. I've also attached my scan report, and I'm curious if there's any link between the two reports or if theres something I should be concerned about. Can you please guide me on what steps I should take next?

I'm a bit worried about my Widal test results which came back with O at 140 and H at 180. I'm also pregnant, so I'm really concerned about whether these results indicate a positive or negative for typhoid fever. Could you help me understand what this means for my health and my pregnancy?

it means typhoid only but it is not a very specific test esp if done before 7 days of fever. kindly get a blood culture to confirm the same
