Had Tonsillitis. Taken Antibiotics. Developed Rashes On Vaginal Area And Anus. Using A &d Ointment. Will It Reduce?

I just was left the hospital 2 days ago for tonsillitis ... They had me on a lot of antibiotics while there and sent me hinge with some. My second day there i had diarrhea and ended up getting a rash .. I informed my nurse & doctor abut it and they gave me ointment to use but they didn t help now that I ve been home i believe it s spreading to my vaginal area i now have a mucusy discharge, and green pus around my anus ...should i return to the hospital or will this go away. I use baby wipes when i go to the bathroom and I m keeping a&d ointment on the inflamed areas.

Hi,

Welcome to HCM.

You are suffering from contact irritation and such areas are also prone for fungal infection. If the rash is very itchy and discharge is foul smelling then you need to get a prescription for antifungal medications. Keep the area clean and dry. You can take Tab Atarax 25 mg twice daily for three days for the itchy rash.

Thanks.
