What should I do if I get a fungal vaginal infection?

Patient's question:

A while ago, I often felt that my vagina was itchy. I didn't pay much attention to it because I work in construction and don't really enjoy taking baths. Usually, I just wash my feet in the evening and then take a nap. However, after a thorough check-up at the hospital, I found out that I got a fungal vaginal infection last week. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the current situation, if it is confirmed that the vaginal inflammation is caused by mold, further examination and treatment need to be carried out. First, thorough cleaning of the external genital area is required, and a is used to clean the secretions inside the vagina. A single dose of antifungal medication should be applied locally before going to bed every night. During the treatment period, it is still recommended to temporarily strictly prohibit sexual activity and maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genital area. Medication should be temporarily prohibited during menstruation. Vaginitis is a condition that is not easy to relieve. Friends with the disease should maintain a positive attitude and face it with an active mindset. Only in this way can they improve their confidence in fighting vaginitis and believe that they will definitely recover.
