Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You can have rashes and itching due to a vaginal infection. Please get yourself checked by a gynecologist internally and get a vaginal swab test done. Avoid having sex till then. Wear cotton panties, and loose lowers. Maintain personal hygiene and take plenty of fluids. Wash your private parts with ordinary tap water whenever you use a washroom. Avoid using vaginal douches and creams. Revert me with the reports so that I can guide you further.
