Have Burning In Vagina And Pubic Bone. Taking Medicine. Could It Be Yeast Infection?

Oh I forgot also been on doxycycline and had rocephin shot and steroid shot all this came about after new sex partner but was tested and was negative? But I didn't start having problems until after I used monistat several times for the cracking in skin.
Thanks for posting your query.
From your description it seems that you are suffering from vulvodynia.
Using monistat for cracked skin is not likely to be related to this.
It is a difficult problem to treat and only some symptomatic relief is seen with the help of medicines.
In addition to maintaining a good hygiene, you need to avoid activities that put direct pressure on the vulva. This includes bicycling and horseback riding.
Sit on a foam rubber doughnut.
You can also do cold sitz bath for pain relief. Doing relaxation exercises will be helpful.
Medical treatment includes topical anaesthetics, estrogen creams, nerve blocks, tricyclic antidepressants, etc. You need to discus these options with your gynecologist for relief.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Thanks for writing again.
The burning in your lower back or botttom region is likely to be related to a nerve compression in the area. This can be diagnosed with the help of MRI.
The redness of labia majora with yellow discharge is suggestive of an infection. It is best to get a vaginal swab culture done to detect the causative organism so that specific antibiotic treatment can be started.
To rule out PID, it is best to get an ultrasound scan of lower abdomen done. A physical examination is usually more important in the diagnosis.
Meanwhile you can start taking oral anti inflammatory medicines for relief.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.

A chemically induced inflammation subsides after you discontinue the use of the chemical.
To reduce the inflammation, you can take like ibuprofen and enzyme preparations like trypsin- chymotrypsin after consulting with your gynecologist.
Wishing you a trouble free early recovery.

Methylcobalamin supplements can help in reducing such symptoms.
