Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Yeast Infection
Question: Hello,
I was recently treated for a bladder infection with an antibiotic, which resulted in a yeast infection. I used a Montosat product and a Summer's Eve douch (which I have never used before). The results were not good. The yeast infection persisted and the use of the douch resulted in a reaction that left significant inflation of the rectal tissue and area around the vagina. I went to urgent care clinic who advised me that it was a severe reaction to the douch product in conjunction w/ the antibiotic and montosat product. A swab test of the area as well as a urine sample was taken and returned normal. However, the reaction persists. I have taken warm baths, used a small amount of a cortisone product as suggested by the urgent care doc, but the burning still persisted. HELO
