What are the harms of vulvar itching?

Patient's question:

Vaginal itching has caused a small 1 cm opening in the labia. If I take a bath without breaking the skin, it will hurt. What should I do? I don't want to go to the hospital. How long will it take to heal, and I am breastfeeding.

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description, it is preliminarily considered that the discomfort is caused by vaginitis, such as candidal vaginitis and bacterial vaginitis. Advice: Since you are breastfeeding, it is recommended to use topical medication for treatment and care. It is advised to first visit a gynecology department in a regular hospital for a follow-up examination to identify the cause before starting treatment and care. In addition to treating vulvar itching, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a happy mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
