Possible thrush - please help urgent!

Since yesterday I have had a shooting pain deep in 1 side of 1 of my breasts that starts from the nipple & travels upwards. I'm suspecting thrush as I have no lumps or temperature & feel fine in myself. I've also just finished a course of antibiotics & had a milk blister on the affected side (cracks & wounds increase risk?). So far lo has no symptoms.

I would see my Gp except I'm currently on holiday in Turkey. Most medicines can be purchased over the counter so what do I need to treat me & lo?

Thanks

Daktarin gel (Miconazole) for your nipples and the baby's mouth.

It is sold over the counter in the UK.

Make sure it is gel, not cream.
