Patient's question:
Doctor, I discovered my abnormal vaginal discharge more than a year ago—it was yellow and had a strong odor. When I went to the hospital for a specific examination, they said it was either vaginitis or cervicitis. At the time, I was hesitant, so I didn't treat it properly. Now, a year has passed without improvement, so I want to ask if the condition could worsen if vaginitis or cervicitis hasn't been resolved for a year?Doctor's answer:
I have had vaginitis and cervical inflammation for a year, and it hasn't fully healed yet. You can go to the gynecology department of the hospital for a follow-up examination and use a lotion for treatment under the guidance of a doctor, or you can also take some anti-inflammatory drugs. While taking medication, pay attention to regulation. You can engage in more outdoor activities to enhance your physical fitness, always maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the vaginal area, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and do not stay up late to ensure deep sleep. Vaginitis is a condition that is difficult to fully recover from. It is essential to always maintain an optimistic mindset and face it with a positive attitude, as only then can you reduce the confidence in combating vaginitis and believe that you will surely recover.
