Patient's question:
Doctor, recently after using a certain brand of sanitary pad, I have been experiencing severe itching in the external genital area. I don't know if it's an allergy or something else. Could you please advise on how to treat the itching?Doctor's answer:
Abdominal pain needs to consider the cause of pelvic inflammatory disease, but pelvic inflammatory disease will never cause itching symptoms. It could be asymptomatic transmission, meaning there are symptoms but the examination is normal. Abdominal pain needs to undergo an abdominal ultrasound examination, but for itching, it is best to wait three days after the next menstrual period for a routine vaginal discharge re-examination to confirm the condition and provide symptomatic treatment. In addition to conventional treatment for vulvar itching, patients also need to pay attention to care aspects, such as proper diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a professional hospital for diagnosis to achieve good treatment results.
