I think you mean Trichomoniasis; caused by the flagellated protozoan parasite (obligate parasite), it is one of the most widespread STGs in the world.
The usual prescription is a single dose, by mouth of either Metronidazole 2g (Flagyl) or Tinidazole 2g, or Metronidazole 500 mg 2 x per day for 7 days. Both partners need to be treated, together whether they have symptoms or not, to prevent being reinfected.
Do not use alcohol for 24 hours following last dose of either treatment.
Metronidazole 2g has cure rates of approximately 90%-95%, Tinidazole 2g approximately 86%-100%. Both have a higher rate when both partners are treated together and refrain from sexual contact until all symptoms are gone. Metronidazole 500 mg 2 x per day for 7 days can be used if the initial 2g regime was not effective.
Most infected women have symptoms characterized by a heavy vaginal discharge that causes extreme vulvar irritation. However, some women have minimal or no symptoms. Some men who are infected with Trichomoniasis will have mild inflammation in the penis causing a leakage of clear fluid and sometimes pain, most have no symptoms, this allows the parasite to spread undetected.
According to the CDC (Center for Disease Control) : Sex partners of patients with Trichomoniasis. should be treated. Patients should be instructed to avoid sex until they and their sex partners are cured (when therapy has been completed and patient and partner(s) are without symptoms).
The biggest issue is that all partners must be treated together. If one of the sexual partner(s) are not treated, the infection will immediately return again.
Condoms are the only thing that can protect someone from Trichomoniasis. The organism dies quickly in any other environment and typically cannot be spread on the hands or in the mouth.

∙ 9y agoYou cure trichomoniasis with metronidazole, most often. You prevent reinfection by making sure all partners were treated, that you waited to have sex until seven days after treatment was complete, and using condoms whenever you have sex.

How do you drain liquid from a staph infection?
This can be a minor or a major undertaking. The procedure is called an incision and drainage, and involves making an incision (cut) in the skin overlying the fluid collection and draining the fluid from the abscess. All areas of infection must be removed to cure the infection. If the leftover cavity is large enough, it may need to be packed to prevent re-accumulation of infection and allow the cavity to heal from the inside out.

A very bad yeast infection needs two treatments, a medicated suppository to cure the overgrowth of candidas in the vagina and lactobacillus -- acidophilus to get the right balance in your gut so it doesn't recur.

You can get this by eating yogurt with live cultures or by taking live lactobacillus -- acidophilus 2 tablets twice a day, one hour before meals. This is available OTC your pharmacist will have it in his refrigerator. Wash all clothing, sheets and towels in hot water with a second rinse to remove all the soap residue.

Once the infection has cleared, taking two enteric-coated garlic capsules daily with 4,000 milligrams of allicin-alliin (which is the anti-fungal/ anti-yeast agent found in garlic.) to prevent reinfection, only use the lactobacillus -- acidophilus to cure a current infection or prevent reinfection, take it any time you are given an antibiotic.
