Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was diagnosed with yeast infection in my vagina and treated by my PC. I ran out of the ointment he prescribed and now several days later, I am very uncomfortable with burning in both my vagina and anus and also some swelling of the vaginal labia. I m thinking of doing a cool sitbathe until I can be seen in a couple of days. Which is better cool or warm? I won t do either until I hear from you. My e-mail address is: YYYY@YYYY Thank you in advance. Dorothy J. Britto

vaginal yeast infection can be treated using anti-fungal medication.Vaginal antifungal medicines, such as miconazole (Monistat) and tioconazole (Vagistat) will cure the disease. Also, don't clean your vaginal using soap but use water only and also sitz bath in warm water helps.
