You should probaly get a Yeast Infection Test, to test if you have a yeast infection. If you do the tab will show you and all you'll have to do is buy the Yeast Infection Medicine, and youll be all fine. =D

It sounds like to me that you might have a yeast infection. There is medication you cah buy in the drug store for this. also you should consult a doctor. There is a infection screening kit sound in the drug store as well that will tell you if you have a infection . But consulting a Doctor would be the best way to go.

I've pretty sure thats a yeast infection. Go to the doctor or ask a pharmacist about it. They'll know immediately what it is and give you the right treatment for you and your age. :)

I had this before it sounds like you have an infection or just don't clean there often. Keep your self clean and why not to itch a lot, it will only get worse and it what dont help go to your docter.

Are you a girl or boy? Sounds like a yeast infection (thrush) either way. You can get an OTC product that will take care of it pretty easily. If you try an OTC product and it doesn't work in a week, you need to go to your doctor and get it sorted.
If this is something that happens to you a lot, changing your diet just a bit can work wonders. Sugar, bread and mushrooms are all foods that can make a yeast infection worse. Eating good bacteria (pro-biotic) yogurt and yogurt drinks can help prevent yeast infections and applying cold organic yogurt directly to the area will soothe it. Also don't wear tight clothes (tights and leggings) and make sure your underwear has a cotton lining, though underwear that is completely cotton is better.
Also if this happens a lot (more than twice a year) you should get some tests done at the doctor as these types of infections can be a symptom of something worse (like diabetes).
Hope this helps.
