Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have been having vaginal bleeding these days, along with lower abdominal pain and excessive vaginal discharge. I was diagnosed with vaginal infection. How should I treat candidal (yeast) vaginal infection?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, candidal vulvovaginitis, also known as candidiasis vulvovaginitis, is caused by a fungal infection. The treatment can first begin with soaking in a solution of sodium bicarbonate tablets dissolved in water. After the soak, topical nystatin tablets or miconazole vaginal suppositories can be used for treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to rest more, avoid wearing tight underwear and pants, refrain from sexual intercourse and cohabitation, and maintain a positive mood.In addition, during the treatment of candidiasis vulvovaginitis, besides medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must maintain a light diet and keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of candidiasis vulvovaginitis.
