Patient's question:
A 35-year-old woman has recently been experiencing pain in her lower abdomen and soreness in her waist. Additionally, she has been feeling discomfort in her private area, with symptoms of itching and burning, especially in the afternoon. She asks: Can bacterial vaginosis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Bacterial vaginosis cannot heal on its own; it is a gynecological inflammation that requires clinical diagnosis and treatment to heal. It is recommended that you use medication under the guidance of a doctor, such as metronidazole or tinidazole. Additionally, proper care of the external genitalia should be maintained, including maintaining cleanliness, frequent washing, and changing underwear regularly. Patients should also adhere to a balanced diet, maintain regular sleep patterns, and regulate their physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to maintain a positive mood, consume light, soft, and easily digestible foods, drink plenty of water, and eat more vegetables and fruits.
