Patient's question:
These days, while washing my underwear, I always find a lot of cheesy-looking discharge on them, and it smells very bad. I also feel that my private area is always damp and a bit itchy, and my lower abdomen feels uncomfortable. Could you please tell me: How is vulvovaginitis usually treated to get better?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, there is a fungal vaginal infection, which primarily causes many itchy symptoms. It is recommended that you use a lot of antifungal medications, such as clotrimazole vaginal tablets or miconazole nitrate suppositories. It is necessary to take the medication continuously for about a week. Additionally, pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulvar area and wash it daily. During the medication period, sexual activity is strictly prohibited. For severe gynecological conditions, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent worsening the condition. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can help you. Thank you.
