I took Cephalaxin (antibiotic) for Impetigo about a month ago. I have been thinking I have a yeast infection as a result of this but I also recently noticed that the tissue/skin around my anus (1-2 inches out and circular) is red/pink. Sometimes its sore and/or a little swollen. I'm not sure whether it is an infection or if it is caused by some sort of irritant (I am a virgin so it can't be anything sexually transmitted). Does anyone have anything similar or have any clue what it could possibly be?...

Red or inflamed skin around the anus could be something as simple as diaper rash or jock itch.
A low cost treatment is to buy a diaper cream and spread it over the infected area. If you're lucky, it might kill the mildew or the fungus that MIGHT be causing the irritation.
