Patient's question:
2 days ago, I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend. Since yesterday, I've been experiencing itching down there, which is very uncomfortable. My boyfriend is also itchy, and he has a peeling symptom. He has never been treated for this before. How should I pay attention? Could you give a simple method or any liquid? What could be the cause of this itching?Doctor's answer:
Based on your situation, it is highly likely that you have vaginitis, but I cannot be certain about your condition. I recommend that you undergo a thorough examination and receive treatment. During the treatment period, maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia and strictly prohibit sexual intercourse. Change your underwear daily and preferably wear loose cotton underwear to keep the vagina well-ventilated and dry. It is essential to treat all living utensils simultaneously. The patient's towels and underwear may also be contaminated with pathogens. If they are not treated concurrently, the treatment results may be wasted.
