i took monistat 1 day to cure a yeast infection 4 days ago. i now have a really thick pearly white discharge. is this just the medicine or still yeast?

Question

Is this a yeast infection? I have had white discharge with no odor for almost a week now. There is some itching and burning sometimes when i urinate. I treated with Monistat one day treatment. It has been about five days since i treated and i still have t

Answer 1

Itching test?: If you are still itching with the discharge, then the yeast infection is still present and needs further Rx. If not, it is the Monistat medication "leaking" out.

Answer 2

Yes: Vaginal penetration by the penis will not induce infection simply because your partner has a uti.

Answer 3

Possibly: Flu can include: fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, chills, extreme fatigue, and sometimes vomiting and diarrhea. If progresses and worsens, respiratory distress and worse. Colds can have the same but usually not extreme fatigue, muscle aches and chills.

Answer 4

Good hygiene: The best way to prevent bacterial infections, or viral infections, is good hygiene. Wash your hand properly and often. Next come nutrition; your immune system works much better if you give it the proper tools to work with. Next comes sleep; not sleeping properly or enough has been shown to weaken the immune system and increase susceptibility to infections.

Answer 5

Several suggestions: Evaluate your routine to determine how long it takes before the discomfort begins. This will help you determine when to stand and stretch, do isometric exercises, or a combination of both. Evaluate your chair and if possible, obtain one that has at least three adjustment. Seat height, armrest, and lumbar.

Answer 6

Blisters under: Toenails are quite common in sports participants. If you're able to drain it, apply a topical antibiotic and wrap it in a band aid, that's about the best you can do short term. You might want to check on the size of the soccer boots. If too small, they can be making things worse. Also, i hope the coach/trainer has them wearing running shoes for the pure running workouts.

Answer 7

See your Podiatrist: Her overuse plus ill fitting soccer shoes are the most likely cause. I would make an appointment with a podiatrist he or she can evaluate her bio mechanics and help her.

Answer 8

Try: Wearing 2 pair of socks. The blister under the nail should be treated first though. With a sterile instrument lance it and apply a bandaid. If you feel uncomfortable doing the procedure, see a podiatrist.
