Bacterial vaginosis is treated with antibiotics. Your doctor has prescribed a cream. Both pills and creams can be given. If the cream is working its normal to get some burning sensation. However,if there is redness/extreme itching/rashes then stop using it. Burning is usually there for the first couple of days of use. If you can tolerate it,then stop using and see your doctor for oral medication.
