Yeast Infection
For the last 20 days, I have had mild irritation in my vagina. It's itchy and feels a little sore. I also found a small cut on the clit. There's dirt like thing accumulated. No other symptoms. Discharge seems normal. No smell.
I stay fairly clean and have not used any new soap or anything down there. However, I did travel 22-23 days back and had to use the airport loo.
Since the place where I travelled to was extremely hot, i thought it's due to the sweating. However, i got back home 4 days ago and the itching is not going away.
I had this exact issue about 12 years ago. However, i took a single dose of fluconazole and it cleared up. I am wondering if I should take it again!

Please get your blood sugar levels done.
It is better if you have a physical examination by a Gynaecologist who can also take a swab from the vagina at the same time.
A cut in the clitoris needs proper evaluation.
