How should one treat vulvitis?

Patient's question:

Hello, I've been experiencing itching in my external genital area for a few days, with increased vaginal discharge. After examination, I was diagnosed with vulvitis. What should I do to treat vulvitis effectively?

Doctor's answer:

The general treatment for vulvitis involves paying attention to menstrual hygiene, maintaining constant cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia, and avoiding scratching. Do not use hot water for washing or soaps. If there is an infection, potassium permanganate solution can be used for sitz baths, but local scrubbing should be avoided. Clothing, especially underwear, should be loose and breathable. Avoid alcohol and spicy or allergenic foods.
The etiological treatment for vulvitis: Completely eliminate local or systemic factors that cause itching, such as trichomoniasis or fungal infections. Treating these gynecological inflammations with Sadiel has shown relatively significant therapeutic effects.
