Brief Answer:
there are creams, suppositories and pills for that

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

if it's a yeast infection indeed then a vaginal suppository can be used. If it involves the external parts only then a cream can be used. Pills are more potent and have the best results. Fluconazole is a fine choice for most patients.

I recommend visiting your doctor first though to ascertain the diagnosis.

Kind regards!
