Patient's question:
I am a 38-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 does the color of my discharge seem off, but the odor is also very unpleasant. This issue has been troubling me for a long time. Please ask: How should I handle vulvar and anal itching and redness?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of vulvar itching can be caused by multiple factors. In your case, it is likely due to vulvar eczema. You can take medication under the guidance of a doctor and pay attention to keeping the private area clean to prevent bacterial growth. Additionally, you should wear pure cotton underwear to prevent poor ventilation in the private area. 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.
