Hello and thank you for sending your question.

What you are describing sounds very suspicious for a possible yeast infection. I would recommend that you go to your local pharmacy and purchase clotrimazole topical cream. I would apply this to the affected area three or four times per day for the next several days. If the symptoms do not improve you might consider contacting your physician to consider a possible prescription medication to improve your symptoms.

Thanks again for sending your question. Please let me know if you have any additional concerns.

Sincerely,

Dr. Galamaga
