Hi and thanks for your query to healthcare magic .
I have read your question carefully and reviewed the pictures you have sent .
Form the treatment doctor have prescribed and from pictures you have sent it is a
skin yeast infection.

I am trying to control my blood sugar, but can I have medication for immediate releif
Brief Answer:
no medication for immediate relief, however, long-term relief is certainly achievable
Detailed Answer:
Hi back!
Please try to control your blood sugar through proper anti-diabetic medications as well as strict diet and lifestyle modifications, because keeping blood sugar levels under control will certainly help to reduce the frequency and severity of outbreaks of yeast infections.
Unfortunately, there is no medication for immediate relief of candida infection but you should see your dermatologist for prescribing the necessary anti-fungal treatment.
