I'm experiencing a really unbearable itch right at the entrance of my vagina, and there's this white, curd-like discharge coming from it. It also gets swollen if I scratch it. This just started yesterday, but it's already the second time this year that it's happened. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection, which can cause itching, swelling, and a white, curd-like discharge. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment, which may include antifungal medication. In the meantime, try to keep the area clean and dry to help ease the discomfort.

I'm really concerned about my cousin who had a C-section about 6 months ago. She's been having a lot of back pain and it's worrying. Another cousin, who also had a C-section a few years back, is experiencing similar issues with her back. And on top of that, she's been working out regularly but just can't seem to get rid of the flabby belly fat above the C-section scar. Her whole body looks fit except for that tummy area, which bulges out. Can you explain why these issues happen after a C-section and suggest some solutions?
