Patient's question:
Last year, I had an episode of it. After checking at the hospital, I was prescribed medication, which quickly controlled the condition when taken internally and externally. However, recently, my private area has started to feel uncomfortable again. My discharge is also abnormal, with a particularly strong odor. Could you please tell me: What are the causes of candidal vulvitis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal candidiasis is caused by fungi. It can be treated by appropriately washing the external genitalia with baking soda, applying clotrimazole or miconazole cream, and using topical medication. Change your clothing and bedding frequently. Pay attention to a balanced diet, avoid spicy and sweet foods, drink plenty of water, and urinate frequently to prevent the inflammation from spreading to the urethra and causing urinary tract infections. Wear loose cotton underwear and pants, wash them separately, expose them to sunlight for disinfection, engage in appropriate exercise to enhance physical fitness, and more. In fact, gynecological conditions are not frightening. Patients should believe in their ability to overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of controlling the condition and recovering are very high.
