Patient's question:
What medications can be used for vaginal candidiasis? I have external itching and want to know the doctor's opinion. How can I treat it to recover better?Doctor's answer:
Candidiasis is caused by fungi and may be due to poor hygiene or a weakened immune system. It is recommended to visit a gynecological clinic for a routine vaginal discharge test and follow the doctor's guidance to use antifungal medications. Pay attention to cleaning the external genitalia daily and maintaining cleanliness. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and change underwear every day. Abstain from sexual activity during treatment. Severe itching of the external genitalia requires prompt treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. Additionally, focus on self-care training and proper diet to prevent the condition from worsening.
