My 2year 10month daughter has a smelly yellow discharge, I found it on her and her underwear. Is it normal? Could it be a sign of an infection and if so what type?

My 2year 10month daughter has a smelly yellow discharge, I found it on her and her underwear. Is it normal? Could it be a sign of an infection and if so what type?
This is a sign of infection. Possibly a yeast infection. Has she been on any antibiotics recently?
Yes. For flu.
Antibiotics for flu? Hmmm, since flu is a virus most doctors don't give antibiotics.
Anyway, if she has been on antibiotics, she may have a yeast/thrush infection. Time to get her back to the doctor.
Yes she has been on an antibiotic in the last 3wks. What can I do to help her?
At her age you need to take her back to the doctor. Antibiotics should last no longer than 10 days, NOT 3 weeks.
What are the chances of the yeast healing on its own?
Slim, this type of infection only gets worse without intervention.
The antibiotic she drank it 3wks ago. Thanks I will take her to the doctor.
Please do take her to the doctor. Although I am a registered nurse, you don't want to risk the health of your child by getting advice from laymen on the internet.
Yes mam I will,thanks again. Have a blessed day.
