You should definitely be checked for BV (Bacterial Vaginosis).  That is what this sounds like.  An antibiotic like Metrogel or Flagyl will get rid of that.  Just be sure to watch for a yeast infection during your course of treatment.  Unfortunately, antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections are known for causing yeast infections.

Could just be a small infection. I thought I read somewhere if you have greenish discharge, it generally means infection. If it is an infection, then your doctor will give you medicine for it. Take care.
