Itching, Red Rash On Labia Minora With Small Pus Filled Bump Due To Use Of Metro Gel And Diflucan. Histroy Of Bv. Help
Hello about 4 weeks ago I was told I had bv from my obgyn. He prescribed flagyl for 7 days. Then last week I started my period and started to notice itching. I let it go a coupe days Bc I assumed it was from wearing pads. When it didn't stop I returned on Tuesday and they gave me metro gel and two diflucan. After taking one pill and using one night of the metro gel I was up with a really red rash on my labia minora and it looks like I also have a small pus filled bump and it only hurts when urinating???
Your presentation is indeed that of an infection, but this will have to be confirmed with a physical examination and laboratory analysis (eg. Vaginal swab test or investigation of your vaginal discharge).
A general worsening of your symptoms and development of new symptoms is a sign of failure of treatment due to either of the following causes: -Misdiagnosis and thus condition not being treated with the right medication -Inadequate dosage of antibiotic used (too low dose used) -Inadequate duration of use ( sometimes response can take time) -Inappropriate antibiotic used (despite of an accurate diagnosis, some individuals can be resistant to certain antibiotics which could be the reason for your non-responsive state), so please do revisit your doctor and get a culture and sensitivity examination done which will provide information on the most effective and suitable antibiotic to completely and rapidly relieve you of your condition.
I hope this helps.
Best wishes.
