EXTREME PAIN from bacterial vaginosis...please help?

I got diagnosed today for BV...I have never had this before, but it has me on the couch unble to move unless I HAVE to go to the bathroom and that puts me in excruciating pain as well.

I have taken 800mg motrin, used some numbing vagisil cream, have an ice pack down there, and started an antibiotic today.

Does anyone know any little secrets to kill this pain? And things I should not do... This is like the worst yeast infection X 100...

To treat BV with L. acidophilus, you can do one or more of the following:

From yahoo health:

* Eat at least 8 oz (226.8 g) of yogurt with live L. acidophilus cultures as part of your long-term daily diet. In one small study, women who ate L. acidophilus yogurt for 2 months showed a drop in rates of BV. 5
* Providing that you are not pregnant, you can directly treat the vaginal area with lactobacilli by inserting lactobacilli in gelatin capsules (which dissolve), tablet form, or yogurt form (with a vaginal medication applicator) into your vagina. Do this for 7 days.

Yogurt may sound weird but I bet it'd be soothing..
