Patient's question:
My little girl is three years old and already attends kindergarten. Yesterday, she came home saying that it hurt when she peed. At first, I didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just a case of her having a "hot" condition due to drinking less water. But when she said it hurt again, I checked and found a longitudinal tear-like crack, about 3 centimeters long, between her labia minora. We are very careful about hygiene, washing her bottom and changing her underwear every day, so it should be ruled out as vulvitis. I'd like to ask what could have caused this. Could it be that she tore it while playing, perhaps due to overly vigorous movements?Doctor's answer:
Generally, surgical treatment is the best approach, as oral medications are not very effective. It is recommended to seek surgical treatment at a hospital. Pay attention to postoperative care and prevent infection. It will gradually improve. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
