Are these normal symptoms of a yeast infection?
About two weeks ago I had sex with a new boyfriend and there was some discomfort. I thought I might have just ripped a little. The next day we tried again and we couldn't because it hurt so bad. Now I have an itchy swollen labia with bumps varying the size of a small zit to about the size of a dime they are all over my vagina and they start out as clear and then get yellowish. I don't know if the color is from the monistat cream I am using or what. Now the sores are breaking open and bleeding and my whole vagina feels kinda raw. (I also have a uti that I am treating). And I wake up about 10 times a night every night. I just need a good nights rest and some relief. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
The "rawness" is what a yeast infection turns into if not treated right away. The next time you get put on anti-biotics, tell your doctor that you get yeast infections when you take them, and they'll give you one of those pills I mentioned to take in advance. I know this from experience :)
Oh, wait, so you're on antibiotics for the UTI? You can definitely get a yeast infection from that. I don't know what the bumps with pus would be though. Could be some other kind of infection. Even if it's just a yeast infection, the doctor can give you a pill that'll clear it up faster.
