Weird Vaginal Discharge

I've been having a foul-smelling vaginal discharge for the past couple of days, along with a horrible rash between my legs (as the result of the discharge). My vagina (and cervix) feels tender, sore...as if it's infected. I can't stand the smell..and I'm afraid to be around anyone because of the odor. What could be causing this?

hi,
i agree with the statement above it's either bacterial vaginosis or a infection, and you should go to your gp and get a swab taken if it's not a infection it's likely to be bacterial vaginosis,
not sure if it would be a sti (what colour was the discharge?) hope this helps

You could have an STI or something called bacterial vaginosis.  

What this means is that you have to go to the doctor and get the appropriate antibiotics to fix the problem.

Go to the doctor now.  Don't wait.  The longer you leave it the more chance of doing permanent damage to your reproductive system.
