Q: Allergic reaction?
asked by: MrsR on February 17th, 2009

I took a muscle relaxant last night and at about 4am this morning, I noticed my labia minora ( on the sides and at base of vaginal opening) was burning and itchy.
It's typical of an allergy because it's incredibly swollen, red, burns, painful to touch and itchy. It has also been like this all day and every time I use the toilet, I seem to irritate it from wiping.
I also know it is not a yeast infection as I've had many and this is nothing like one.
I know I'm allergic to this back medication because of the swelling in my eyes this morning, but why is it affecting my labia?

I did have intercourse with my husband yesterday, but in the afternoon. A good 12 hour before this reaction occurred.
Can you please tell me what I should do?
I tried putting on yeast infection soothing creams, but it burns like a mother-******

Help!
I'm so uncomfortable and I don't have time to go to the clinic.

I don't think this has resulted from using a muscle relaxant.
It sounds like a vulvovaginitis, an inflammation of the vagina and vulva or it could be inflammation of Bartholins glands, located on each side of vaginal opening.
