Patient's question:
Hello, I've been experiencing itching in my external genital area for a few days, and I have a lot of leukorrhea. After examination, I was diagnosed with vulvitis. What symptoms does vulvitis cause?Doctor's answer:
The patient has an increase in leukorrhea, which appears grayish-yellow, cloudy in appearance, often foamy, and has a foul odor. The discharge irritates the skin of the external genitalia, causing local itching, burning, and pain. If accompanied by a bacterial infection, the leukorrhea may turn pink or form a large amount of pus. When accompanied by urethritis, symptoms such as frequent urination, painful urination, and even hematuria may occur. It is important to seek medical attention promptly for examination and treatment at a formal hospital. Strive to get checked early when symptoms appear, so that diseases can be detected and treated early, avoiding the loss of the best treatment window.
