Brief Answer: Side effect of clingen... burning sensation Detailed Answer: Hi there. Thanks for writing in. Clingen when inserted vaginally can cause side effects like burning sensation and irritation. I would advise you to stop using Clingen , and talk to your doctor about it. She might prescribe you an alternate antifungal or instead you can also take oral fluconazole. Get a vaginal swab test done to know the actual cause of the itching and white discharge. Follow good perineal hygiene.Wash the area with warm water and keep the area clean and dry. Do get back to me if you have further queries. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Regards, Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan
