Suggest Treatment For Yeast Infection While On Nystatin Powder And Ointment
Been to Doctor twice possible yeast infection, prescribed two diflucan pills, nystatin powder and a nystatin ointment. This is over course of 4 weeks. It s a little better but still red and itching. Almost appears to dry with the use of the powder. No discharge or blisters present just red and irrated. Last pill was taken Friday 23rd. Any ideas why it not gone

cannot say in your particular case but it certainly seems like a description of a yeast infection.
Other sources of moisture such as incontinence need to be addressed.
There are stronger treatments out. Longer and higher dose diflucan for a start.
