Monistat

So I️ just recently got a yeast infection & I️ asked users on eve What they would recommend as an OTC treatment. All replied Monistat so I️ purchased it immediately. This is only my first night and it’s been burning and way more itchy then before I️ had inserted the cream. Is this normal? I’m assuming it’s because the medicine is working and I️ usually don’t believe online comments about a certain products but nearly 90% of the comments were that it itches and burns unbearably that they either had to wash it out or go to the ER?!
