You need to speak to someone with a knowledge of vaginal atrophy. Do read the threads on the Forum. It may well not be an infection!
A fresh urine sample must be sent to a lab. for testing to see if it grows a Bug which can be appropriate treated.
Canesten sent me into a cool bath for 3 hours with severe burning as I didn't have thrush! which again, is obvious when it's severe on examination. 4 me it was like an intense continual itch high up in the vagina. I suggest getting some LIVE yoghurt. Eat a lot which will cleanse the digestive tract as well as applying into the vagina as high as possible. Then lay back and rest. Over the counter pain relief every 3 hours too.
VA 4 me: like razor blades

up there. Proper treatment usually sorts it. Did the urine sample grow a Bug? If you have been given a broad spectrum AB it may be altered 2 appropriate treatment if a report comes back positive.
Do ask for atrophy treatment and let us know how you get on. VA is miserable until sorted
