Thrush can occur on the outside without discharge. That's what it sounds like to me, but your doc will clarify it for you. Try to not use liners if u can help it, they can irritate sensitive skin. And if it is thrush, then u need to keep applying canisten consistantly for two weeks. Symptoms can take a few days to go away in this case.
Try taking a bath or shower to ease the itching, then apply the cream. when this happened to me (after the birth of my DD) my doc told me to bathe in detol instead of showering. i was bathing upwards of 6 times a day for the first few days but it got better.
Hope it clears up before Tuesday! you poor thing. xx
I got some dermaid cream to put on. Have been bathing in dettol all day. A cold compress helps soothe the pain. Should I be putting a barrier on over the dermaid?? If so, I have bepathen, pawpaw and sudocream. Which is the best one to use with the dermaid?
From my own experience I would be reluctant to be using too many products, especially any anti fungals without a proper diagnosis. I tried so many different things, each one would work for a short while then seemed to make it worse.
:yeahthat: I agree, don't go using antifungals until you have a proper diagnoses. You can actually build up a resistance to stuff like canisten, unfortunately. Also try bathing the area in a salt water solution, with a few drops of cider vinegar and a small amount of crushed garlic. Sounds weird, but worked wonders for me. Hope it eases up soon, it's so uncomfortable and icky
