Having a fungal vaginal infection often leads to the recurrence of red rashes, with varying degrees of itching in the external genitalia, which may even extend to the anus.

It is recommended to first undergo a routine urine test to determine the specific illness. During this period, avoid sexual activity again and maintain good hygiene.Lastly, during treatment, patients should adhere to a balanced diet, maintain a regular sleep schedule, actively engage in physical exercise, and regulate their physical and mental health. It is also essential to maintain personal hygiene and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
