Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi I have an uncomfortable vaginal itch but no discharge nor unpleasant smell. I have not had sex nor taken any anitbiotics lately so I am relatively certain it is not a yeast infection nor a sexually transmitted disease and have come to the conclusion it must be either bacterial or fungal. I am unable to see a doctor for a few days due to my current situation, but I have an unopened tube of fucidin cream that I picked up when my son s school had an outbreak of impetigo (which he fortunately never caught), and I m wondering if it s ok to use that for relief until I can get to a physician?
Hi, From history it seems that there might be having fungal infection producing severe itching. You should use anti-fungal cream like multifungin or tinaderm. You can use Fucidin cream, it will be useful only for soothing area by which there will be some relief from itching. Take Benadryl or Cetrizine medicine for itching till you get appointment of your doctor. Keep local hygiene clean, dry and airy. Ok and take care.
