Burning Sensation In Pubic Area After Using A Depilatory Cream. Solution?

I used a depilitory cream on my pubic area a couple years ago. Since then it has started burning. I went to my Dr. She tested for STD s which came back negative. Then she said it s probably a yeast infection and she has tried two different kinds of yeast infection medication , but it still burns. What else can I do to get rid of the burning which I m almost sure is due to the cream I used a couple years ago?
