She was on antibiotic therapy day 3 when itching started
Dear! Antibiotics can aggravate fungal infections, stop antibiotics first and I need to evaluate her fully after taking her history .. thencan prescribe accordingly. Feel free to contact me if she wants consultation so that her problem can be explored and treated accordingly. Regards. Dr.Rabia Nosheen
she needs physical check up by doctor..and seeing the lesions directly can add to findings,and it could be any inflammatory condition of vulva other than Infection..or if recurring infection it should be treated according to culture and sensitivity
If condition is improved with antifungal give her local application like Canestin vaginal cream and Tab Soften daily one
