I think I have vulvitis, it's swollen and painful. What should I do?

If you are experiencing symptoms like swelling and pain in the vulva, you may have vulvitis. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try using an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream on the swollen area twice a day for up to a week. You can also take ibuprofen for pain and inflammation relief. Additionally, it's important to avoid using scented soaps and keep the area clean and dry.
