probably the worst pain I've experienced. luckily, it took just 5 days to heal. I was so relieved. I wouldn't recommend you use monistat anymore though. my Dr told me it wasn't good to use during pregnancy. sit in some Epsom salt until you can call your Dr for an appointment. it will ease the itchy feeling and take some swelling down as well.
had one for 5 months, went into the ER multiple times and they didn't do anything for me. my ob finally prescribed me some antibiotic cream ( after I had my first appointment and found out I was 11weeks pregnant) and let me tell you... it was the best feeling ever being able to move and walk without feeling itchy and having a burning sensation there.
