- Welts or sores may appear in the area.
First comes irritation, then hives or sores. Although treatable and not serious, they can be very bothersome in such a delicate area as the vagina.
- Your vagina starts to smell different
This smell is trying to send you a message, so listen to your vagina. It can be similar to dampness due to a lack of ventilation in the area.
- You are more likely to have a vaginal yeast infection.
Yeast and bacteria thrive in moist environments and can therefore multiply when you don’t change your underwear frequently.
- You might have a urinary tract infection
These infections occur when bacteria reach the urinary tract, so you should consult a doctor.
Therefore, it’s best to avoid these bothersome symptoms and change your underwear daily. Remember to wash your underwear with warm water and soap to prevent infections.
