Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have gone through your query and health concerns in detail , itching and burning in the vagina may be due to allergy to cephalexin, so you can take cetrazine 10 mg daily along with deflazacort 6mg twice daily .
To rule out cancer you should go for pap smear .
I hope this answers your query.

Deflazacort is a steroid and is a prescription-only drug. You can have Cetirizine only and can apply 1% hydrocortisone gel for relief. Anti-itching vaseline will also help.
