i've been having itching/redness in my uh, womenly parts

my vagina's just been...itchy this week...my clitoris is a little swollen and a little red and the area around it is red too, it's not a huge bother to me, nothing hurts, i just randomly feel that it's itchy, but it hasn't gone away or gotten any better/worse in a week so, i was wondering if anyone knew if this was the symptoms for anything ?

i'm 18, i havent had actual sex before but my boyfriend has fingered me recently, i don't know if that's relevant but there's some background info if you need it.

Sounds like a yeast infection, there is ointment over the counter for that.

Get a cold wash cloth and let it sit on your vagina & let it get some air. You probably had an allergic reaction to some soap or his fingers were dirty, but I'd still get it checked out.

It's probably just irritated and swollen from being touched. I've had a similar thing happen before, at least it sounds similar. If you are worried about it, go see a doctor. Also try wearing cotton underwear and looser pants, it'll keep better airflow, which may help calm the irritation.

doesnt sound like signs of a bad infection or anything. just let your vag get some air to keep it cool. or if the itch is that bad get some cream for it.
it sounds like signs of minor irritation since your vagina not used to being touched often
