Suggest Remedies For Lower Back Pain, Painful Urination And Vaginal Itching

I have side effects (I believe) from antibiotics, and a steroid pack which were given to me for a sinus infection. Feelings are low back pain, dreading to urinate because of discomfort, and hints of vaginal itch. I seem to remember this from the past years. What do you think?

Hi,

The antibiotics can result in damage to normal protective bacteria residing in the vagina. This helps to flourish of pathogenic fungi in the vagina causing vaginal infection. Giving you the symptoms.

The vaginal examination would reveal causative organism (to be confirmed by vaginal swab test). This can be treated with suitable antibiotic please consult a gynecologist

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
