Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling an intense itching sensation downstairs, accompanied by a burning pain, which is unbearable. I went to the hospital for a routine examination of my vaginal discharge, and the doctor told me I have trichomoniasis. How could I suddenly get this disease? I don't know how to treat it. What are the effective methods for treating trichomoniasis?Doctor's answer:
Trichomoniasis is a common gynecological disease, with the main symptoms being increased vaginal discharge, thin, foamy discharge, and significant itching of the external genitalia. Treatment can be administered through vaginal medication insertion or oral medication. Vaginal medication insertion is relatively more effective, typically involving the insertion of metronidazole suppositories. Oral medications usually include metronidazole tablets, Qiguan Pill, and others. Specific medication use should strictly follow medical advice.In addition to promptly treating trichomoniasis, it is essential to maintain a positive mindset to face the disease and pay close attention to dietary care, ensuring balanced nutrition and timely replenishment of the body's nutrients.
