Patient's question:
My period started on the 25th and lasted for 5 days before stopping. However, after it ended, I had sex with my husband, and it caused my skin to break out. It has been breaking out until today, the 3rd, with very little bleeding—just a few spots—and accompanied by mild abdominal pain. I went to the doctor today and was prescribed a week's worth of medication, with a follow-up appointment scheduled for a week later. The medication includes a benzalkonium chloride solution, which the doctor said to spray on my underwear, but I forgot to ask whether to spray it on the underwear before washing or after washing. I'd like to ask what condition this might be—could it be cervical erosion?Medical history and treatment effectiveness: None.
Type of help desired: Comprehensive answers.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it seems your condition is caused by a certain inflammation, but it's hard to specify what type of inflammation it is.Advice: It appears you are using a drug for sterilization purposes. There's no need to worry, as it is generally used for sterilization, often for skin disinfection. Don't be concerned. You can directly spray it on your underwear while wearing it.
If you suspect inflammation, you should go to the hospital for a colposcopy examination. There are several treatment methods for gynecological diseases, but since symptoms vary among patients, the treatment approaches differ. Therefore, patients need timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
