Vaginal Symptoms in a 3-Year-Old: When to See a Doctor

Do not self-treat a suspected yeast infection in a young child. Seek medical attention promptly if your 3-year-old daughter has:

  • White, thick vaginal discharge
  • Itching, burning, or pain in the vaginal area
  • Redness, swelling, irritation of vulva/vagina
  • Sores or ulcers
  • Pain/burning with urination
  • Frequent or difficult urination
  • Fever

Self-treatment can worsen or spread infection. A doctor will diagnose correctly and prescribe appropriate therapy.
