What Causes A Rash On The Vagina While On Bactrin?

I took antibiotic, Bactrin ds, for 3 days - 2 / 500 mg (I think) - for the past week or so I have developed a terrible rash on outside of my vagina, which has gotten worse in the last few days and it is ver painful to urinate when it hits my red/raw skin. I am allergic to augmentin - could I be allergic to Bactrin also? And any suggestions on what to use to stop the itching of my outside vagina ?
