I have had burning and swelling in the
vaginal area. I thought that I had a uti
but a urine test showed no bacteria. I
thought that it might be a yeast infection
but I used the yeast medication and there
is no change in the symptoms. I am over
50 and have had a hysterectomy and have
not been sexually active for several
years. I seem to run a low grade fever
when I am tired and the symptoms are
extremely uncomfortable. I am not able to
go to a dr. at this time but am looking
for some relief. Any suggestions. Thanks

I would definitely go to a doctor. I know
you said you aren't able to go at this
time, but is there any way you can clear a
spot in your schedule to get there? If
you are having burning and swelling and do
have some kind of an infection, it is
important that you get it treated sooner
rather than later.
Have you been having any unprotected sex
lately? There is always the chance that
it may be an std. Make sure to have your
doctor test for both bacterial infections
as well as stds if this is the case.
