How to deal with external genital pain and redness

Patient's question:

After having sex with my boyfriend, I soon experienced itching below, pain and redness in the outer vagina, and many small bumps near the vaginal opening and anus, which were also itchy. For the past two or three days, I haven't paid attention, and the bumps have gone, but occasionally there's still some itching. Recently, my underwear always has a very unpleasant odor, and it gets wet easily with some discharge. What is this infection? I've looked up many references about vaginitis, but the symptoms seem to match a bit, and I really don't know which one it is. Previously, I went to the hospital for a fungal vaginitis, but they only tested for chlamydia infection. The second time, I didn't go to the hospital and took medication recommended by a pharmacy, which worked. By the way, my boyfriend didn't take any medication last time.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, if you experience the above symptoms again after cohabitation, it is necessary to consider the possibility of vaginitis and sexually transmitted diseases. In such cases, it is recommended that you and your boyfriend go to a regular hospital for examination, clarify the condition, and then receive standardized treatment. For patients with severe external genital pain, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly and treat according to the doctor's advice. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent worsening the condition. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can help you. Thank you.
