Patient's question:
These days, while washing 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 is uncomfortable. Could you please tell me what is the best method to treat trichomoniasis?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Trichomoniasis is a common gynecological disease, generally characterized by symptoms such as yellowish-green vaginal discharge and a foul odor. Treatment typically involves oral metronidazole and the insertion of medication into the vagina, with a course of 7 to 10 days. Additionally, 1% lactic acid solution can be used to rinse the external genitalia. Furthermore, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene, avoid unsafe sex, and prevent cross-infection. Gynecological diseases can cause significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, dietary issues should be given more attention, with a focus on light and nutritious foods. It is hoped that gynecological patients can receive professional treatment.
