Patient's question:
On Women's Day, I went for a gynecological examination. The doctor said I had cervical inflammation (which I had before), hypertrophy, and performed a smear test, prescribing medication. However, on the third day, my external genitalia started itching, swelling, and there was excessive discharge. By the third day, the itching became even more severe, and the swelling worsened.Previous Treatment and Effects:
I used a medicated solution for cleaning daily and applied medication every night. After five days, there was some improvement.
Smear Test Report:
Candida vulvovaginitis. I had never had vulvitis before, so why did I develop it on the third day of the examination? Could it have been cross-contamination in the hospital?
Doctor's answer:
No, inflammation often spreads. You can use Yinhua wash solution, Jie'eryin, etc., for sitz baths to address it and drink more water. Rest well, avoid spicy, hard foods, alcohol, and smoking, and refrain from sexual activity. Regular follow-up tests are necessary. If the symptoms are not relieved, patients should face cervical inflammation interference actively and seek early medical attention. We should not avoid seeking medical care. If cervical inflammation does not improve with treatment, the treatment plan should be adjusted promptly.
