Itching On Vagina, Butt Cheek, Thigh, Inner Lip And Genital Area. Treatment?
I have a very intense itching on the left side of my vagina (labia?) and the itching is also present on my left butt cheek and the top of my left thigh near the butt and genital area. There is some itching on the left inner lip, but no visible bumps or itching on the inside of the vagina. I bought vagisil and whenever I apply it, it stings and doesn't lessen the itching, idk if this is because I've been itching a lot. I also bought over the counter yeast infection cream, a three day treatment, and I have finished it and still have the itching.

Looks like candida infection. Need to confirm under a microscope. Never the less u can have flucanozole tab once a week for 3 weeks. Insert same vaginal pessary daily for 5 days. Apply ketoconazole cream twice a day for 7 days
