The burning that occurs would result from the infection itself and also from the itching that it causes.
The treatment can either be topical or oral.
There are different topical choices, some are available over the counter.
Examples are:nizoral, monistat, canesten, vagistat.
The oral choice is
diflucan 150 mg ,this is taken as a stat dose, only one dose is needed.
There are other infections that can cause a discharge but the colour is normally different.

gonorrhea , may or may not cause any symptoms. If a discharge does occur it is normally yellow green
(3)
