Patient's question:
Recently, I've experienced itching, pain, a burning sensation, swelling, red rashes, and erosion on the vulvar skin. What methods can treat vulvitis?Doctor's answer:
1. Trichomoniasis vaginitis is characterized by local vaginal pain and the recurrence of thin, foamy white discharge. Metronidazole can be taken orally, while local use of metronidazole suppositories is also recommended. Acidic solutions, such as acetic acid-chlorhexidine, can be used.2. Bacterial vaginosis with mild symptoms can be treated with povidone-iodine diluted 10 times for cleaning. For more severe symptoms, a specialist doctor should be consulted to conduct a thorough examination to confirm the infectious microorganisms, followed by oral medication for anti-infection treatment.
