Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation While Urinating Post Scratching

So I recently had a yeast infection (worse one yet) the itching was unbearable and I scrathed it raw or cut myself with my nail so no it burns when I pee and sit down, I kind of walk like a penguin now! I am using Desitine but need to know if I can something else and how long it takes to heal?

Hi. It seems you have damaged your skin while scratching. It might take 5 to 7 days to heal completely. You should apply a topical antibiotic like mupirocin or fusidic acid cream meanwhile. Hope it helps.
