Hi
Thanks for the query

At this stage, I think the most pertinent thing to do would be a urine culture and sensitivity. This will help us find out if the infection has been effectively dealt with.
Further. since your symptoms are still present, an allergic or contact dermatitis or eczema could be responsible. However, asking you to go ahead with hydrocortisone cream without a urine culture would be premature since the steroid in hydrocortisone can potentially worsen the infection.
Further, it would also be useful if you can upload a picture. We can take this discussion ahead in a much better manner then.
Hope that helps
