Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
As you have tested for most of the STIs and it has turned to be negative and you have used cansten for the symptoms.
After using this medicine itching has come down but there is a greenish discharge, it may be due to secondary bacterial infection.
Physical examination is require to confirm your diagnosis, I suggest you to consult your dermatologist and undergo examination to find out the actual cause.
Once the diagnosis is made it will be easy to manage the patient.
Thank you.
