Patient's question:
Patient: Female, 33 years old, has had mild vaginal itching since December last year. Used medication to treat vaginal infections, and then experienced itching symptoms two days before menstruation. Menstrual flow was slightly less than before, and the cycle lasted 2 days longer. The doctor previously treated it as a common vaginal infection.Doctor's answer:
For the use of vaginitis, medication can be used: Bathe the external genitalia with a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution, twice daily. After bathing, apply antibiotic ointment to the affected area. Those with fever and elevated white blood cell counts can take antibiotics orally or via injection. Generally, for patients without complications, in addition to professional treatment, dietary therapy can be used as supplementary treatment in daily life. It is essential to avoid excessive hunger or fullness in daily eating habits and never overeat or binge drink.
