Foul smell after treatment for yeast infection, why?

I had a yeast infection and I bought monistat 1 to treat it. I am sure it was a yeast infection, I have been diagnosed with them before. I had clumpy, yeasty discharge and intense burning and itching. No smell at all. 3 days after taking the monistat 1, I still have yeast and itching, but not as much, I read that monistat 1 can take up to a week to work (I always used monistat 3 in the past). The thing that worries me, is that I now have a bad smell that I did not have before the treatment. What could be going on?
