Suggest Remedy For Vaginal Rashes
A week ago, my genital area started itching abnormally, and 2 days later rashes started spread around my vaginal and thighs. I am a 40yrs old woman, do not have any physical relation in the last 7 years. I googled the symptoms to find its yeast infection (the best I could arrive at) and had taken 3 doses of Syscan 150 and it started improving from the 2nd day and the itching and the burning sensation has lessened to a greater extend and rashes around vagina. But rashes on my seems to have gotten worst since this morning, (I have completed my 3 doses with day before yesterday). Should I take more dosages or any other remedy.

Hello,
Thank you for posting on HCM.
It seems you are suffering from Tinea cruris and corporis, a kind of fungal infection.
I would suggest you to consult your dermatologist for proper management of the condition.
I usually recommend proper course of oral anti-fungal drugs like Fluconazole or Itraconazole along with anti-fungal cream like luliconazole for local application at bedtime. You can additionally use antifungal dusting powder containing sertaconazole during day time and a soap containing ketoconazole for rinsing of affected areas. Take oral antihistaminics for itching as required.
Maintain hygiene over those areas and avoid wearing tight undergarments.
Hope your queries are resolved and wish you best of health.
