Patient's question:
The baby is four years old and is a soft and cute little girl. For the past one and a half months, the baby has been constantly complaining of pain and itching in the external genital area, often scratching with her hands, and also having difficulty sleeping at night. She has seen a doctor, who prescribed potassium permanganate for washing, but it didn't help, and also prescribed erythromycin eye drops for application, which also didn't work. She is washed before taking her nap every day and changes her underwear daily. The little bottom is not much of a problem, just a bit red. Seeing the baby in pain is truly distressing. The assistance needed: prescribe some medicine and give a few instructions.Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is very likely that the vaginal inflammation is caused by having young children. You can give the child a sit bath with potassium permanganate solution, or apply many ointments to the child, such as tetracycline or erythromycin. Alternatively, you can give the child oral metronidazole, which is also known as tinidazole tablets, to help stabilize the symptoms.Nursing care: This condition is mainly due to the child being young and having a relatively weak immune system. As the child grows older, it will improve. There is no need to worry too much.
