Patient's question:
I am 23 years old. Recently, I have been experiencing pain in my lower abdomen and soreness in my waist. Additionally, I have been feeling discomfort in my private area, with symptoms like itching and burning, especially in the afternoon. It is really unbearable. Could you please tell me: What is the correct treatment method for candidal vulvovaginitis?Doctor's answer:
These medications can alleviate symptoms. Vaginitis is primarily treated with local medications, and recurrent cases may consider oral medication. Systemic medication has significant side effects, which you do not need at this time.Candidal vaginitis is a vaginal inflammation caused by fungal infection. Its recurrence is associated with various factors such as weakened immunity, prolonged use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, or transmission between partners. The treatment for candidal vaginitis should primarily involve local antifungal medications, such as ketoconazole suppositories, tablets, and symptomatic drugs.
