Over the counter remedies

I have had post-nasal drip for nearly four months. The doctor gave me a prescribed nasal spray and it hasn’t completely helped.

I have also been sneezing more than I normally would – so I’m not sure if I have allergies or an infection.

What should I do?

or bacterial vaginosis if the hands have not been previously washed?

I took an antibiotic to get rid of it. It seemed to be better for a few weeks and has come back. The only real symptom of it that I have is a stabbing pain to my right ovary. I’ve been checked for other things such as cysts, but the doctor never found anything. A Doctor at planned parenthood finally diagnosed me with Bacterial Vaginosis. Is there something else that can cause stabbing pain in my ovary? and other than antibiotics, if it is bacterial vaginosis, how to I deal with the pain until it finally goes away? Please help =[

OK When I first started having sex when I was younger I started getting these rashes on my vag, I also get BV (bacterial vaginitis) chronically… Anyways, I never thought the rash could be herpes, none of my other partners have ever had any problems, I was with my ex for 4 yrs and he never complained of any rash. My current partner, we have been together 2 yrs, and I was getting BV alot and he came up w/a rash, we dismissed it thinking it was from friction, then about a month or 2 later, he got it again, he said it was like bumps that made a little circle, i never saw it. He said it didn’t itch it just was sore. Both times. I hadn’t had any rash in over a yr so I didnt think anything of it. the second rash he got was back in March.. then over the weekend on Sunday I got this little bump that didn’t really bother me, but then after we had sex it started itching then i may have itched it too much but it’s really sore now and hurts to touch, it’s smaller than a dime and i don’t see any blisters or anything but it might have little bumps (can’t tell b/c it’s so small and that area sometimes normally has little bumps) it feels kind of like it’s trying to scab over now (i think i scratched it too much and it opened up then now it’s healing)… But I really think it was just a bump i irritated and now it looks like a rash??? So I’m kind of freaking out.. When I went to the Dr years ago I showed them the rash and they said "it doesn’t look like any herpes I’ve ever seen" and basically sent me on my way, they never tested me or anything.. It was also in a different spot (a little higher than where it is now closer to my clit area, now it is down by the opening).. I may be getting BV again or this could be something else like a yeast infection, or even herpes.. does anyone have any ideas, beside to see a dr.. I already know that part lol.. thanks..
The reason why is b/c I only had the rash like 3 times within like 3 yrs and when i went to the Dr he dismissed it and told me he doesn’t think that is what it is, I believed in him that he knew what he was talking about, then I rarely had any issues until now. When I got w/my current bf I hadn’t had a rash in atleast 8 months and still hadn’t until now, which has been over 2 yrs. So I almost just never thought about it.. and thought it had something to do w/my recurrent BV

I know this Bacteria infection comes from females but how do men get treated for it? Thanks for any answers I can’t find this info in anywhere. Its for a project that I’m working on so I really need answers! I put my question under this category because I know this happens a lot to pregnant women & I was wondering how did their partners get treated
