Patient's question:
Female, I have been menopausal for two years, but recently I have been feeling very itchy in the external genitalia and around the vaginal opening, and the odor of the discharge is also very strong. Please ask: How is vulvitis treated?Doctor's answer:
Common causes of vulvar inflammation include irritation from vaginal discharge, such as excessive discharge flowing to the vulva, menstrual or menstrual pad irritation, and irritation from other factors. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for tests on vaginal discharge, urine, and secretion cultures to determine the cause, and then receive targeted treatment. Do not self-medicate. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene, frequently wash underwear, and keep the vulva clean and dry. Gynecological patients can use dietary therapy as a supplementary treatment while understanding professional treatment. In daily diet, avoid excessive hunger or fullness, and never overeat.
