yeast infections
is there anything i can do to relieve the itching from this stupid yeast infection. the little tube of stuff that came with my 3 day treatment is useless, as was the treatment. of course i can't get to a dr. for weeks. help before i go crazy.
i hjave taken difulcan twice and it didn't help. my vulva and opening to my vagina is full of tiny very itchy bisters. the ones on my vulva are so bad that it hurts me to sit down, making me feel like i am sitting on a rock. ai have also tried wahing with warm wat er and baking soda and taken yogurt pills, but nothing helps. it is so bad that i foulf throw myself in front of a train. what else can i do to relieve the itching and pain?
Use the 7 day treatment to treat the yeast infection. Also use the vagisil to help w/the itching. If, however, it persits after a week of treatment, you must see a doctor. (I assume you have had yeast infections before, so you know what your experiencing.)
Vagisil cream will help with the itching, but will not get rid of the yeast infection. Also, you may want to try garlic, preferably the odorless capsules, because garlic kills yeast instantly. Taking garlic on the regular basis can help prevent or help the severity of yeast infections.
Good Luck!
If you have treated yourself with an otc yeast med and have no relief from symptoms, then most likely you do not have a yeast infection.
There are many other causes for vaginal itching. I would really recommend not treating yourself with anything else until a doc can evaluate you. If you keep trying to treat the itch, and then go to the doc, they will not be able to see the whole picture which will in turn delay the diagnosing of the problem. This really, could set you up for much bigger problems.
For temporary itch relief, I find a frozen water bottle will ease the symptoms.
