Yeats Infection, Fissures and Hemorrhoids!

by MerrynBlythe, Apr 15, 2006 12:00AM
Hi...3 weeks ago, I got a 10 day supply of Amoxil for a severe sinus infection. About a week later, I got an anal fissure and a hemorrhoid...no idea why as I'm so routine with bowel movements and hardly ever strain. I was using Proctocedyl suppositories and ointment. This ointment is always a little harsh so I use it sparingly and try not to get any in the vaginal area...yeah, right! The next thing I know, within days of this, I get sensitive in the vaginal area, mainly between the labia and close to the vaginal opening. This becomes so intense with itching, redness, soreness and swelling. While a applying a little Hydrocortisone cream of my husband's, I can feel a few small raised "bumps" inside the labia...what's that? Today, I finally went to a doctor at a walk-in clinic and she tells me I have a yeast infection. I have no discharge...everything is external and internal of the labia. Forget the fissure and hemorrhoid...the "other" is so itchy, inflamed, sore and swollen, who has time to think about the anal problems? So, my question is...a yeast infection without a discharge? Never had one of those before. Does this happen? In fact, I have only ever had about 4 yeast infections in my life and they were all over 20 years ago. This is soooooooo aggravating and frustrating and painful and itchy and I really don't know what to do. I am taking Fluconazole (150mg) and I have a 1% Hydrocortisone Canestan cream...sound right?
Thanks for any info and insight!
Merryn
