Patient's question:
Patient Age: Itching from the vulva to the anus for over a year. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: A thorough examination said it was fungal vaginitis, but some medications didn't work. What medicine can be used?Doctor's answer:
It may be due to insufficient medication or inconsistent use, which is why the condition keeps recurring. For candidiasis vulvovaginitis, you can use nystatin effervescent tablets for treatment, and apply sodium bicarbonate externally. You can also go to the hospital for inhalation therapy.Recommendation:
Mycotic vulvovaginitis is prone to recurrence, so it's necessary for both partners to be treated. You should adhere to medication for three menstrual cycles. After each treatment, it's important to retest vaginal discharge.
For patients with gynecological inflammation, in addition to taking medication, they should also pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining hygiene during treatment and keeping the private area clean. Lastly, it's strongly advised that female patients undergo regular follow-up tests!
