Thrush queries...

Michael
Been told to use a 6 day cream treatment by a doctor for a reoccurred thrush that I've gotten... 😒
However after day 3 of the 6, the thrushed area has started to spread outwards and the discharge is still there...
Does that mean it's not working?
Also... Once I insert the ointment and cream , where the hell does it all go? Or could that be the discharge I am seeing???
Pleaseeee help! Xxx
