Vagina Hurts, Vertical Cuts On Gooch Area. On Canestan Oral. Medication Ok?

hi, i am 19 years old. I think i have a yeast infection because my vagina hurts, its red and irritated. There was an abnormal white discharge and it is sometimes abnormally itchy. I have a boyfriend and i know his sexual history, he doesn't have anything and i was checked about half a year ago for stds. Iv taken canestan oral about 5 days ago but the problem is still here. I also noticed that there are about 3 or 4 vertical cuts on my gooch area and when i pee and shower it burns. Especially soap cleaning down under hurts a lot. should i wait to see if the canestan clears it up?

Hello,
Thanks for the query

Vertical cut in vagina area are mostly seen in candida infection.

Canestan is an antifungal and hence your treatment is correct.

In addition application of an anti fungal cream will provide you faster relief.

Let me know if you have any other doubts.
