Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Creamy discharge suggestive of fungal infection of genital tract. Consult gynecologist for examination. Antifungal cream helps in case of fungal infection.

To prevent Candida infection, you have to prevent heat and wetness in your vagina. To do this, you should avoid wearing synthetic panty, and G strings. Avoid any chemicals in vagina, like bubble bath, foam bath, vaginal douching, antiseptic solution etc.
You must avoid tampoons, or any foreign body in your vagina. You have to take best hygienic measure during menstruation.
Get your sugar test done.
Back pain needs to be evaluated for cause as you also have neck pain, consult orthopedic doctor for examination and management.

Hope this helps you.

Regards
