General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

The Canesten cream is an antifungal so it should clear up a yeast infection. If you have discomfort when you urinate then you need to have another exam and a urinalysis so see your doctor again soon.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein,
General Surgeon
