Patient's question:
The underwear is always yellowish, sometimes with greenish discharge, the discharge is white, and there is a bad odor. There are always red bumps in the external genital area, which feel like herpes. Urination has a burning sensation. Are these symptoms trichomoniasis or candidiasis? What medicine should I take?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, trichomoniasis can be considered. A careful examination reveals congestion of the vaginal mucosa, with scattered bleeding spots or small red hemorrhagic papules in severe cases. The posterior fornix shows increased leukorrhea, appearing as grayish-yellow, yellowish-white foamy thin liquid or yellowish-green purulent discharge. In severe cases, blood streaks may be mixed with the leukorrhea. It is recommended to take metronidazole orally, but it has significant side effects, so attention should be paid when using it. Trichomoniasis is a disease that is difficult to recover from. Friends with the condition should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism. Only in this way can they improve their confidence in combating trichomoniasis and believe that recovery is certain.
