Taken Medicine For Bacterial Vaginitis And Yeast Infection. Itching, Burning, Vaginal Redness. Baking Soda Bath Ineffective
Hello,
I have have been treated for bacterial vaginitis and yeast infection. I took two doses of for yeast infection walk in clinic gave me ( I think it was fluconazol or diflucan, can't remember) symptoms persisted and so went to gyro she gave me flagystatin, I think I had bad reaction to it because it burned and itched a lot and I had to go to the bathroom a lot. I just went to see her again yesterday and she told me all test results were normal and to stop treatment ( I was on it for 8 days). She suggested baking soda baths. This morning I was oaken with again itching and burning and now my vaginal area is red...I tried the baking soda bath but it does not seem to be helping. What should I do? It has been about 4 weeks now I have these symptoms.

Welcome to HCM.
You have to take recent anti fungal drugs like itraconazole or terbinaforce.
Local application of clindamycin,miconazole,neomycin will be helpful.
Vaginal tab containing clotrimazole,tinidazole,zinc,lactobacillus is advisable.
Nsaid to subside inflammation and levocetrizine to subside itching is necessary.
If you are married then your husband should take azithromycin,secnidazole and fluconazole kit.
Keep proper hygiene,keep that area dry,clean with anti septic liquid or soap.
Avoid tight under garment and sex till get complete cure.
Keep in touch with your gynecologist.
