Does other women have symptoms, itching and burning ?

Hi everyone I’m looking desperately for some help or advice. Since an assult last oct, I’ve seen the doctors over atleast 20 times and 2 gynaecologists. I was tested multiple times for all stds and the only thing to show was high risk hpv in a pap. Not 16 or 18 and they did not want to test further. What other tests can I do? What is causing my vulva, vagina and anus area itching and burning so badly everyday. My gyn said hpv doesn’t cause itching etc but online it says it is a symptom. I had discharge since the assult and the itching and burning which has just gotten worse over four months now and I can’t handle it. I saw my gyn again on thurs last week. She had a brief few second look at my vulva and said it looked normal. Isn’t it possible to have tiny warts you can’t see or?? I feel like she’s missing something. I don’t know what else to do. Has anyone suffered from this. I think the guy who raped me had hpv but I don’t know and police haven’t taken it seriously at all and haven’t checked his medical records. Could the burning be high risk? Maybe I have low risk? I’m feeling suicidal about all this and started meds but this is affecting my life a lot and any help would be appreciated Thnakyou !!

I have read that itching is a symptom but not so much about burning.  Have you been tested for vulvadynia or something?

No I haven’t my gyn has not helped at all. She said it looked abit red but that was it. I’m fed up! Someone I saw mentioned vulvodynia to me, I’m not sure what test to diagnoise? And I think vulvodynia is for life isn’t it?:/
