I apologise in advance if this gets a bit too graphic for a public forum

I've had some itching, dryness and burning for the past couple of days. This morning I woke up and the itching was really bad. I put some clotrimazole cream on (its the same as canesten according to the woman in the chemist last week) and that seemed to sooth it a bit.

My symptoms have gotten worse through the day (y'know, typical thrush) and now the itchyness is driving me crazy.

I don't know if it is the cream has made it worse or if it naturally got worse

So this is my question: what can I do until Monday when the chemist is open? Morrisons here doesn't have a pharmacy so I definitely can't get anything medicinal. No live yoghurt either.

I'm hoping the more experienced members on here will have some suggestions. I've not had thrush before and it's driving me crazy. How long does it typically last?
