Is It Safe To Apply Cream On Fissures?

Hi, I ve recently been on a course of antibiotics to which then lead me to get a yeast infection which I m treating now. When I applied the cream sometime after the inner skin of the labia teared which from reading is a fissure. I was just wondering of its still safe to apply the cream on this fissure or what is the best option for them to heal? Its itchy and sore at the same time. I ve been applying apple cider vinegar instead of the cream. Please advise on the best treatment for the fissure to heal the quickest Kind Regards Clarissa

Hello, thanks for your contact to healthcaremagic. If I am your doctor I advice you to stop applying vinegar. Do a yeast fungal culture and sensitivity test. It gives us idea about the most sensitive drug on yeast. Continue your treatment with the cream till that time. Fissures on this position is very difficult to treat so apply the sensitive drug. If you have to ask me you can ask. Thank you. Dr. Arun Tank. Infectious disease specialist.
