Any kind of untreated vaginal infection can lead to PID - which can not only cause a great deal of pain, but can cause you to have difficulty conceiving, carrying child, and even make you infertile. Also, you can pass any bacterial, viral, or fungal infection to your partner (although it's less likely for a guy to actually GET the infection because he doesn't have a nice warm, dark, moist environment like we do :) ) who can pass it back to you (if you've gotten treated) or on to others. It only takes a few days of antibiotics or a quick shot in the rump to get rid of it anyway :)
