Patient's question:
Vaginal and perianal itching, about a week long. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Used Compound Kushen Wash for 3 days and Fushi Qing Ointment, but it didn't work and it seems to have worsened. What kind of help is desired: Bought a tube of Keting Fu Ointment, unsure if it can be used. If it can, how many times a day should it be applied?Doctor's answer:
This cannot be used, otherwise it may lead to symptom relief. Advice: It is better to switch to a weaker steroid ointment, such as hydrocortisone butyrate cream, etc. It is recommended that you go to a dermatology comprehensive prevention and treatment hospital or a formal hospital's dermatology department for a follow-up examination. After diagnosis, treatment should be guided by the doctor. Daily treatment for patients with vulvar itching mainly focuses on symptomatic treatment. Patients can take some oral medications, supplement with vitamins, and pay attention to self-care, proper diet, and avoid cold foods. It is hoped that patients with vulvar itching can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
