Question : Can you use polysporin on the labia which is sore from candida/vaginitis?

Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome to healthcare Magic!
Yes, polysporin can be used for this purpose and it covers a wide variety of pathogens. Ideally it should be applied thrice a day locally.
Another good option is Candid antifungal powder/cream.
I hope the advise would be informative and useful for you.
Take Care!
