What are the main causes of vulvar pain?

Patient's question:

A 23-year-old woman has been noticing a lot of-like discharge on her underwear during the past few days, and it smells very bad. She also feels her private area is damp and itchy, and her lower abdomen is uncomfortable. Please ask: What are the main causes of vulvar pain?

Doctor's answer:

There needs to be consideration of whether the vulvar inflammation is caused by dampness and irritation of the external genitalia. A routine vaginal discharge test should be conducted to prevent bacterial infection. If treatment is required, it mainly involves antibiotics and topical suppositories for effective treatment. The patient also needs to use a cleansing solution to complement the treatment. Finally, during the treatment period, the patient should maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
