If you know you have a vaginal yeast infection, you may be trying to find something that will help you find some relief from the itching and burning.
If you suspect you have a vaginal yeast infection, you should have it checked by your doctor first. It may not be yeast but something else that’s causing the problem.
Here are some tips to help relieve the discomfort while you’re waiting for treatment or are being treated for it:
- Apply a cool washcloth to the vulva
Apply an ice pack (covered with a towel or other fabric)- Aim a fan towards your vulva to cool it off and keep it dry
- Use a sitz bath with Espom salts
- While sitting on the toilet, use a squirt bottle to help clean the vulva area
Do you have any tips?
