Patient's question:
Actually, it's usually okay, but I always get sick after my period. The specific symptoms are itching in the private area and a heavy, painful feeling in the lower abdomen. Is this a case of inflammation? Please ask: What are the solutions for treating gynecological inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, vulvar itching is often caused by excessive abnormal vaginal discharge from trichomoniasis or fungal infections, which irritates the vulvar area, leading to vulvar pain. If antiseptic solutions are used to wash the vulva or vagina, or certain drugs are placed inside the vagina (such as sulfonamides, furacilin, strongly alkaline soaps, potassium permanganate solutions, etc.), it may cause allergic reactions or recurrent dermatitis in the vulvar area, resulting in vulvar itching. During menstruation, if hygiene is not maintained properly, or if rubber or plastic menstrual pads are used without frequent vulvar cleaning, it can lead to prolonged accumulation of menstrual blood or vaginal secretions in the vulvar area.
