She might have a UTM....Uniary Tract Infection, has nothing to do with her medical condition. If she is feeling burning when she is urinating, and she might see light blood or puss..she probably has this infection, which is curable. If you can't see the doctor now tell her to sit in a tub full of warm water....and poor a little baking soda in there. Also drink lots of cranberry juice. This happened to me and it scared me because I had no idea what happened. This is prone to happen to people who are sexually active and didnt clean themselves properly after....or for those who hold in their pee too long, or haven't been cleaning properly. See a doctor as soon as you can. I've attached a link to match her symptoms.

Monistat cream or Diflucan pill, but if you get them frequently you should try to find out why. There could be an underlying medical condition that is causing them like diabetes.  I can tell you that I used to get them alot and stopped wearing panties and rarely get them.  Also, when I was on antidepressants I got them more.   I've heard sticking a whole peeled garlic clove up there every night for a week or so, removing in the morning, helps.

get a massage regularly, it will help increase your circulation. See a doctor in case it is something to be concerned about. If you have diabetes, this is a common symptom. Use heat packs in bed (be careful of burns though) and I've heard drinking ginger tea helps also :)

it's nothing to be too alarmed about.  You might just have a yeast infection down there, that causes itching but yea they do sell creams like lotrimin to put on there.  Try it it won't hurt a thing

It is not per se a symptom of diabetes.  Excessive urination, thrist, intermittently blurred vision, acetone-smelling breath and extreme hunger are more typical signs of diabetes.  \n\nIt is very unusual that your toenails suddenly just came off when exposed soaking in warm water.  Nail fungus can exist in the nail and nail bed, causing the nail to thicken over a series of months and raise.  It does not hurt.  Some women also notice changes in their nails and skin after menopause.  I have seen hormone replacement therapy (a pill daily) help.  It might also be possible to use a topical estrogen cream on the area of concern if you don't tolerate the medication.  A thyroid condition (hypothyroidism) can cause changes in the nails - usually becoming brittle.  Finally very poor circulation in the lower extremity could cause changes in the feet and nail beds...though I would expect more (dramatic!) changes than just in the nails if that were the case.\n\nIn sum, this condition requires a history and physical exam by your doctor for a work-up, a diagnosis, and treatment if warranted.

sweat and discharge can make this happen it happens to my sis too its because her legs are irritated from the liquids and her legs rubbing together it really really itches but put some cream on it she will feel better it is like basicly a baby rash

It is not likely to have such severe pain with diabetic neuropathy. In fact, in diabetes sometimes sensation is DEcreased which causes problems because they cannot feel it when they get minor wounds, which then becomes infected.\n\nIf she has severe pain, is it in her calf? If she has concurrent hypertension and hyperlipidemia, she could be having vascular insufficiency and claudication. In this instance, the blood supply to the leg is insufficient. After some walking, it can cause severe pain, called claudication. One clue - is her leg a little cool to the touch compared to the rest of the body? \n\nHope this helps. If this is so painful, I suggest you bring her to see a doctor to diagnose the exact cause. It is hard to make a definitive diagnosis without seeing her. Painkillers may help temporarily but they do not solve the problem.

There are treatments for this condition. She is 28 years old. Why didn't you take her to a gyno or nutritionist etc. years ago.  She should be given help to alleviate these symptoms.

Wow! I have never heard of such a thing. I would really really really recommend her seeing a doctor. It could be simply two different problems; Severe simus infection and gas/indigestion. I'm no doctor so I am sorry I cannot diagnose her for ya. Take her to a doctor, it could possibly be a serious condition. Good luck to you and tell your aunt I hope she finds out what this is and gets better!

Diflucan ~ now this is by prescription, wherein Vagisil is for the itching more than anything...also "Australian tea tree oil" in a tepid bath ..now i know many who have tried this,....but remember it is what i have been told...that as far as homeopathy is the ticket for what i know....i would call your physician...i have NEVER had a doctor make me come in for the Diflucan...which is often onset by antibiotics..in fact often when i have had antibiotics, i get the RX for diflucan at the same time...tho it isn't always needed....there..that is what i know..and i may not have your perfect answer...but...that is the best i can do...also look up Edgar Cayce's clinic on line ...the place i went to was in Arizona when i lived there and there are elixirs to douche with  that are clean, fresh and they are extremely healing,...i had forgotten that one ~ i wish you the best! Thank You.....hope it gets better soon.....until yo have the yeast part of the bacterial infection under control use vagisil and panty liners...for vagisil is a topical and nothing to insert...what it does is numb the intchy part of yor perineum...be well....and oh i loathe these things too! take care....

Try using BETADINE solution for washing the vagina anytime she goes to toilet.Consult a Gynecologist as your friend may have some fungal or other kind of infection...

I can't blame her if she is experiencing discomfort, they can be damn bothersome.  Sometimes when you have sex it is like itching a chicken pox or mosquito bite, it only makes it more irritating.  I will say this, yeast infections can be passed back and forth unknown to the guy.  the best advise I ever got, strange as it is going to sound, is for the women to use the vaginal cream and after inserted then proceed to have sex with her partner (thus medicating him).

that didn't work. i'll paste the info here....\n\n\nWhen Juanita was diagnosed with strep throat, her doctor prescribed an antibiotic to treat the infection. Juanita started to feel better soon after she took the medication — the pain in her throat subsided and her temperature returned to normal. But then she noticed an unusual discharge in her underwear. To make things worse, her vaginal area felt very itchy.\n\nJuanita told her mom what was going on, and her mom took her back to the doctor's office. There, Juanita found out she had a yeast infection. Although she'd had been nervous about seeing a doctor for such a personal reason, she was relieved to find out that diagnosing and treating a yeast infection is simple and painless.\n\nWhat Is a Yeast Infection?\nA yeast infection, also known as candidiasis (pronounced: can-dih-die-uh-sis), is the name for a common infection caused by a type of yeast-like fungus called candida.\n\nYeast infections usually occur in warm, moist parts of the body, such as the mouth and moist areas of skin. When they cause an infection in the vagina, it is known as vulvovaginal candidiasis.\n\nCandida can overgrow for many reasons. Stress, pregnancy, and illnesses that affect the immune system may allow yeast to multiply, as can certain medicines. These include some birth control pills and steroids. Or if you're taking antibiotics, such as for strep throat, the antibiotics can kill "good" bacteria that also live in the body and normally keep the growth of candida in the vagina in check. Yeast also can flourish if a girl's blood sugar is high. Girls who have diabetes that isn't controlled are at a higher risk for yeast infections.\n\nMany girls find that yeast infections tend to show up right before they get their periods because of the hormonal changes that come with the menstrual cycle. Clothing (especially underwear) that is too tight or made of materials like nylon that trap heat and moisture might lead to yeast infections because yeast can thrive in this type of environment. And douching and using scented sanitary products can upset the healthy balance of bacteria in the vagina and make yeast infections more likely.\n\nYeast infections can happen to any girl, and they're not related to having sex — although they occasionally can be spread from one sexual partner to the other. This is quite rare, though, and the partner of someone who has a yeast infection does not automatically have to be treated. Yeast infections that are spread through sex are not considered a sexually transmitted disease (STD). A doctor won't be able to tell how you got a yeast infection, but will be able to tell you if you really have one, and if so, how to treat it.\n\nWhat Are the Symptoms of a Yeast Infection?\nCommon signs and symptoms of yeast infections include:\n\nitching and irritation in the vagina \nredness, swelling, or itching of the vulva (the folds of skin outside the vagina) \na thick, white discharge that can look like cottage cheese and is usually odorless, although it might smell like bread or yeast \npain or burning when urinating or during sex \nIf you have any of these symptoms, see your doctor or gynecologist. It's easy to confuse the symptoms of a yeast infection with those of some STDs and other vaginal infections. Your doctor can give you the right diagnosis.\n\nDo Guys Get Yeast Infections?\nObviously, guys don't get vaginal yeast infections. But balanitis (pronounced: bal-uh-nie-tis), an infection of the head of the penis, can be caused by the same candida that causes infections in girls. Guys who have diabetes are more prone to this infection. A guy who gets balanitis may not have any symptoms or the tip of the penis may become red and sore or itchy. Some guys might have a slight discharge as well.\n\nGuys who are not circumcised need to take extra care to clean properly beneath their foreskins. The warm, moist folds of the foreskin are the

Ideally, the cream or vaginal suppositories start killing the infection immediatelly. Unfortunately, this is rarely the case.  As long as the yeast colony is alive and reproducing there's going to be some invasion into the vaginal mucosa - and itching/burning. Check the package for the expected efficiency of the product, some claim to work in 7, 5, 3, or 1 day. Even the 1-day product takes 6-12 hours before you'll start to notice relief. If you've used the cream for it's specified length, and it hasn't worked, go see your doctor. It's possible you have another type of infection, or contracted a more resistant strain. Either way, she'll be able to prescribe something stronger that should help.\n\nHope you feel better,\nOdd

After you take a shower try applying an antibiotic ointment that is petrolatum based until the sores are healed.  Then use a good cream like Avveno daily.  This works in both area's.  Also get undies that have cloth around the elastic like fruit of the loom for ladies.  Get some new well fitting bra's the lift...  If this doesn't start to clear up after a week or so you might want to talk to your doctor.   You could develop a bad infection.  Also watch what kind of pants/tops you ware... stay away from anything that will hold the heat and moisture.   I know this can be very painful.  Good luck,  hope you feel better soon.

here is an idea that may work for the fingernail fungel infection -- ADD SOME ZINC to the daily vitamin supplements. Bathing your hands in a bowl of wather with 2 drops of essential oil of sage, every day for a week, will help too. Its caused from bacteria for one thing.. and thick fingernails are a sign of poor diet but also in the maturing years. "Tea Tree" essential neat oil drops massaged on nail & nail beds may also help. IF you know of a armomatherapy shop in your area they can make a mixture of Tea Tree & Tagetes (5 drops each) oils diluted with 2 teaspoons of olive or grapeseed oil - if its not a fungus.\n\nas for the "eczema" -- the root problem may be due to allergy - cow's milk or eggs. There also is some type of correlation between allergies in the family and eczema. Even if parent or grandparent has history of hay fever, eczema, asthma, psoriasis -- or even food allergies!! If mom has allergies she probably passed them on.... \nDermatoligist should check that all out -- if its truly bothersome & itches alot -- it can be releaved by applying affected area twice a day with essential oils. Again, check with nearest aromatherapy shop -- mixure should be chamomile, yarrow, tagetes with 10 drops of primrose oil --
