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 like my private area is always damp and a bit itchy, and my lower abdomen feels uncomfortable. Could you please tell me: What tests are done to diagnose vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
If it is only columnar epithelial ectopia, treatment is generally not necessary. However, yellow or green vaginal discharge indicates inflammation, and a careful examination of vaginal discharge is required to identify the specific pathogen before administering anti-inflammatory treatment. Cervical erosion can be physiological or pathological. Physiological cervical erosion often improves with increased sexual activity and regulation of endocrine balance. However, pathological cervical erosion, caused by inflammatory infections, may lead to severe cervical erosion and may require surgical intervention. It is best to seek treatment at a reputable hospital.Gynecological conditions can be very serious, and patients are advised to seek timely symptomatic treatment according to their doctor's recommendations. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctor's advice for treatment. Additionally, dietary issues should be addressed, avoiding spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition.
The above answers are hoped to be helpful to you. Thank you.
