Patient's question:
I am a 32-year-old woman who doesn't usually have much going on, but after having sex with my boyfriend, I always feel uncomfortable in my private area. Not only is the color of my discharge abnormal, but the odor is also very unpleasant. This issue has been troubling me for a long time. Please ask: What should I do about chronic external vulvitis?Doctor's answer:
Now it is possible to apply medication vaginally. You can use two tablets of metronidazole for vaginal application after menstruation for about seven days. Alternatively, you can take metronidazole tablets, use a liquid wash for the external genitalia, and pay attention to keeping the external genitalia clean. Avoid cold foods and spicy foods. Wear loose clothing, and use cotton sanitary pads. A liquid wash with bitter almond to reduce swelling and relieve pain is also a good option.Then, the patient needs to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular sleep schedule, and regulate physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to maintain a positive mood, eat more light, soft, and liquid foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
