Well, it could be the razor you use. Switch the blade and maybe shave less often. Chances are it's irritation bumps, and the burning could be from the soap or lotion you use, if you use any. Don't shave so hard next time. If the burning and redness keeps occuring, maybe you should go to a doctor.

I think the best thing to do would be to go see a doctor. Go to Planned Parenthood. It will be cheap in case money is a problem. It is most likely just a yeast infection or a small rash that can be fixed witha simple lotion or medicine. I wouldnt be too freaked out if I were you. Good luck.

if you shave it's probably just dry. put some lotion on it, and don't shave for a couple days and see if it starts to clear up. otherwise, go visit your doctor.

This sounds like it could be one of three things: "simple" feminine itching, burning and irritation; a yeast infection; or, the results of a bladder infection. If it's possible, I'd go to a gynecologist (GYN) and find out for sure what's going on. It sounds as though this has gotten really uncomfortable and over-the-counter meds may not help at this point. If for some reason you're not able to see a GYN right now, go ahead and try an over-the-counter med. I'd suggest first trying something for feminine itching, burning and irritation. A good one I've used is Vagisil. There are definitely others out there, so just read the labels advertising this problem. If it's a yeast infection, it's harder to find over-the-counter meds for this and you'll probably need a doctor's help. Also, eat lots of yogurt! If you have a bladder infection which would have symptoms like a constant desire to urinate even if you can't, burning sensation when you do urinate, and possible cramps in the lower part of your abdomen, then you will need antibiotics to clear this up. Sometimes if a bladder infection has gone on too long (and you may not even have symptoms of it), the acidic urine can cause irritation to your vaginal region. Good luck. I KNOW you can't be comfortable. Do know, though, that all girls/women go through this at least once (usually more) in their lives. P.S. While you have this irritation make sure you wear panties with a cotton crotch. Nylon or any other material can only irritate the problem.

This doesn't sound like a yeast infection, although it might possibly be. I would make an appointment with your doctor or talk to your mom about it. Without having more details and the ability to do tests if necessary, it's difficult to say for sure what it is or how to treat it.

Do you mean rashy? And burns so you must mean it's rashy and it hurts. Try putting hand lotion on it. And yes I think you need to get it checked up it may be a yeast infection. But I'm not quite sure.
