I'm a 22 F. I have been sexually active up until I got my first yeast infection 2 wks ago. My ob/gyn prescribed Diflucan and in a couple days all symptoms of the YI disappeared. Right after this, I noticed a small bump near my anus. It got worse when it hurt to sit down for too long or to pass stool. I checked into ER and within that time I developed a rash on my butt cheeks as well. The doc told me it seems like the yeast may have spread to my rectal area. Is this possible? She took a culture* for examination & she assured me that it's not an STD (herpes, etc) and just to be clear on my symptoms -- I haven't engaged in anal sex. She prescribed Difulcan for the yeast and she also put me on Doxycylcine which I have to take for 10 days. I did a "follow up" on the "wound check" aka the rash & it seems to be fading away gradually but now it hurts even more to pass stool. When I checked, I see that some skin around my anus has peeled off and that's what now causing that burning sensation. I have been using the Clotrimazlole cream that the doc recommended but because it's raw skin I have been using witch hazel to cleanse and then applying Vaseline to help with the burn. I also have been urinating a lot since I have been on these meds, but I also feel a pressure in my bladder is this normal? Could I be getting a UTI? SIGHS! When will it all stop?
