Irritation And Cuts In The Clitoris And Vagina After Using Monistat. How Long Will It Get To Heal?
Can monistat irritate the clitoris and vagina? I thought I might have a yeast infection so I used monistat 1day cream insert yesterday. When I went to shower today, my vagina and clitoris were both VERY sore. Almost feels like I have tiny paper cuts. I ve rinsed with warm salt water but it s still sore. How long will this last?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
You should use any medication after consulting the doctor only.
If you use excess dose or non-suitable medicine that can cause side effects.
If there are no any major abrasions, your symptoms may lost for two to three days.
But if the symptoms persist or increase, better to consult gynecologist once.
You can take sitz bath, which can help to some extent in decreasing the pain.
Take care.
