For patients with vaginitis, it is not advisable to eat spicy and irritating foods. Instead, they should engage in regular exercise and maintain a light diet. Spicy foods can exacerbate inflammation and worsen the condition. For the sake of their own health, it is better to avoid spicy foods. Additionally, patients should also avoid desserts. If the disease causes constipation, they can consume yogurt containing lactic acid bacteria.
