Are these lumps boils, ann allergic reaction, or something else?

I am taking Augmentin for a sinus infection that has now cleared up, but it gave me a yeast infection. I used the capsule of Monistat 1, but I don't think I got it in high enough because the next time I went to the bathroom most of it was between my labia. Fast forward a day and now I have five or side hard lumps under my mons pubis on the left side. I occasionally get these lumps and they go away, but never this many before. So I'm wondering if it could be an allergic reaction to the Monistat ovulule medicine, or something else.

I can't really see the lumps from a mirror, and they don't hurt unless I press on them. I am still itchy from the yeast infection and am wondering if I got enough of the cream up there to cure it, or if I should repeat the medicine.

Thank you!

Since you have so many of the lumps and are not sure about the medication, I'd highly recommend getting into the doctor to have them take a look and make a recommendation.  Sometimes people do see some reactions from Monistat, especially the one day treatment since it's pretty potent.  Give your doctor a call so you can start getting some relief as soon as possible!
