Patient's question:
Every day, my private area is very itchy, sometimes with a stinging sensation. I don't know why, but when I use medication, it improves, and when I stop, it comes back. The examination revealed inflammation. Please ask, what are the initial symptoms of vulvitis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis includes non-specific vaginitis, which is often caused by various physical and chemical factors: such as cervical, vaginitis, or cervical cancer leading to excessive vaginal discharge, which can irritate the external genitalia. The treatment of simple vaginitis should first maintain the cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia, avoid scratching the external genitalia, and do not wear synthetic underwear. At the same time, actively treat diseases that may lead to vaginitis, such as vaginitis, cervical, diabetes, etc. Medication can include a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths, or decoctions of traditional Chinese herbs with heat-clearing, detoxifying, insecticidal, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic properties, such as Dendrobium candidum, Sophora flavescens, Phellodendron amurense, and Cnidium monnieri, for fumigation and washing. After bathing, apply an antibiotic ointment locally.
