    Irritated, swollen inner labia?

    At first I was peeing out blood in my urine two weeks ago, or more. It was like just flowing, I was scared! Well it stopped and slowed down altogether. Then I started having extreme itching lately, today I am not itching, I just feel like I am swollen, it does not feel normal.

    If you were peeing out blood it sounds like you have a UTI and need to get antibiotics. You can also take cranberry pills, drink cranberry juice, and eat blueberries to help your bladder naturally and drink TONS of water, as this never hurts when you are having bladder pain or problems, but in your case I would definitely see a doctor to make sure it is not something more serious.

    Something more to consider is that if it is a UTI it could spread to your kidneys if left untreated, so it is very important to rule out the UTI. You can go to any walk-in clinic and have a urine dip test, it is super easy and extremely common so no reason to be embarrassed.. and it also only takes 5 minutes to get results! UTI's are one of the most common problems women have but they are easily fixed.

      I agree with the above. Blood, itching and irritation are signs of UTI and you need antibiotics or a antibiotic creme to apply. The symptoms change as days go by, so you should visit the doctor to prescribe you on antibiotics. The symptoms will go away within a few days.

      UTI's are very common and most women get them at some point in their lives.
