Need help: Toddler yeast infection question

Coming over for a moment from 12-24 where it's too slow to get any insight right now... here's my question.

LO has been diagnosed with "most likely" a yeast infection. I'm frustrated that the doc couldn't be 100%, because I just want it gone. It looks awful, and it hurts DD every single time I wipe her.

 The YI is just on the surface in her vaginal area, but it's covering the whole area. They prescribed Nystatin cream, and we've been using it since Wed night, two times a day. My question is, if this was a YI, when would we start seeing an improvement? So far, there's ZERO improvement.

    My DD1 is prone to yeast infections (poor thing) and we have clotrimazole cream we use when it comes back and usually it is resolved in 1-2 days. I also give her chewable probiotics to promote the healthy bacteria down there.
