Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Where are the better hospitals for treating candidal vulvitis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal candidiasis can be treated by applying miconazole to the vulva or using a 3% clotrimazole cream externally, while it is also recommended to take oral ketoconazole or nystatin to eliminate intestinal candidiasis. It is advised to clean the vagina and vulva 1 to 2 times daily with a 2% to 4% baking soda solution. When experiencing vulvar itching, avoid using hot water for washing, as it may cause skin and mucosal damage, leading to secondary infections. Change underwear frequently and avoid wearing tight synthetic underwear to maintain ventilation and dryness. Used underwear, towels, and footpots must be boiled.There are many treatment methods for vaginal candidiasis, but since the symptoms vary among patients, the chosen treatment will differ. Therefore, it is essential for patients to seek a prompt diagnosis to receive targeted treatment.
