Hi,

The red sore on vagina following yeast infection mostly follows severe itching following unbearable itch of yeast infection of the part resulting in open wound secondary infection. You would need antibiotic, anti-inflammatory pills along with anti yeast medicine like Flucotii to control infections & inflammation along with vaginal pessary for local action to clear vaginal infection side by side. All the medicines & their dosage need to be decided according to your personal need.Please consult a gynecologist for that. Medicines are to be taken by both sex partners complete abstinence till complete recovery is essential.

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

Regards,
