Question by Amy G: Can bacterial vaginosis cause a burning feeling in the clitoris and just beneath it?
I have been having a burning feeling inside the inner labia just under the clitoris. It sometimes looks a little red and sometimes it does not. I recently took Diflucan and that didn’t help. Now I am noticing a slightly thick, milky discharge. I’m starting to wonder if it could be bacterial vaginosis. Would BV cause burning in the clitoral area without causing burning in and around the vagina?

BV has a very disctinct, unpleasant odour and burns. If it’s near the clitoris and just under it, that could very likely be from a bladder infection (that’s where your urethra is). However, if that was the case you’d have pain when peeing.
