called my OBGYN and they ordered me a diflucan one day pill because I had a severe yeast infection I took it and the next day it was still not better I m in excruciating pain did not go away so the next day went to the emergency room the ER doctor gave me a diflucan he also wrote me a script to take it 72 hours from today and then 72 hours from that one.my vagina lips are so swollen red and sore and irritated I m in so much pain I m crying what can I do to relieve some of the pain I feel like the diflucan is working on the inside outside of my vagina is so tender and sore I do not know what to do.
For severe yeast infection you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl or doxycycline after an expert opinion along with cetrizine or avil for itching and redness. You can take fluconazole 150 mg or use clingen-forte vaginal pessary to put into your vagina once daily for at-least 5 days. Maintain local hygiene of private part either by regular washing with soap water or you can use v-wash vaginal gel. You can take combiflam or meftal-plus for pain and inflammation.
