Patient's question:
I recently got a vaginal infection. I used medicine for over ten days and cleaned the external area, but didn't clean the inside. I learned something from it. Do you think it's necessary to clean the inside, doctor?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Yes! Candida vulvovaginitis can be treated with antifungal suppositories or tablets, such as nystatin vaginal effervescent tablets, vaginal effervescent tablets, clotrimazole suppositories, miconazole cream, nystatin tablets, etc., placed vaginally. It can also be used in combination with systemic medication and alternated for 7–10 days. For trichomoniasis, treatment options include oral metronidazole and vaginal placement, with continuous use for 7 days. After developing candidal vulvovaginitis and trichomoniasis, medication must be taken under the guidance of a professional doctor and never self-medicate. Generally, 2–3 treatment courses are required.
