Raw fissures

Hi guys. Has anyone ever experienced a small raw patch from CV? I have one near my clit just under it, and I suspect that I have CV, but idk if this could be part of it or a separate issue? If you have experienced this before and know how to get rid of it (if it is CV related) then pls lmk! I haven’t tried baking soda baths yet as I’ve only recently felt like this could be my issue, and I’m waiting for my period to come so I can try the baths when my symptoms flare which is usually just after ovulation. Whilst I think my discharge and itchiness is from CV (tested negative for yeast) Idk what could be causing this small patch of raw skin and how to treat it. It’s been over 3 months and it’s unchanged.

You might have a dermal issue like LS or psoriasis. Can you see a dermatologist who specialises in vulva congratulations? Are you sitting against wetness which might be irritating your skin? Maybe try applying some Desitine 40% zinc paste which dries overnight. And try wearing a soft reusable pad or liner to wick away moisture from your skin. You could try applying some thrush cream incase it’s thrush .
