Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on. I haven't had sex with my husband recently, and I usually clean my private parts and underwear. But suddenly, I started experiencing itching in my private area, and my discharge is yellow and abundant. Please ask: How is candidal vulvitis treated?Doctor's answer:
Candidal balanitis is caused by an infection with Candida albicans. Treatment involves washing the glans and foreskin with physiological saline or rivanol solution to thoroughly remove dirt, followed by soaking the foreskin and glans in a sodium bicarbonate solution. Additionally, an antifungal ointment such as clotrimazole cream, miconazole cream, or econazole cream should be applied to the glans. If symptoms of urethral irritation recur, oral nystatin or fluconazole can be taken for treatment. During the treatment process, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited to avoid cross-infection. Wishing you good health.This condition is not easily resolved in gynecology. Friends suffering from this disease should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism. Only in this way can they boost their confidence in combating gynecological issues and believe that recovery is certain.
