Q: do i have herpes if my vaginal area is red on the outside and iches?
Vaginal redness and itching can be due to a lot of things: yeast infection, too much friction, or other STDs. Do you have any sores present? I would go to the doctor to get checked out because it could just be a yeast infection. When I get herpe outbreaks, I am swollen and itch in only the spot where the sore pops up. But, everyone is different.
if there is no sores present and its just swollen and itchy, it is more than likely just a yeast infection and can be very easily cured, i get yeast infections ALOT!!! dont know why, but probably just a hormonal inbalance.
