Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for a check-up and found that I have vaginitis, vulvitis, and mycoplasma infection. Is this serious? I have undergone three days of physical therapy, which includes aerosol, ozone, red light, and microwave treatments. The doctor suggested four more days, but I felt it was too expensive, so I didn't do it. They prescribed two boxes of erythromycin soluble enteric capsules, vaginal tablets, and topical wash. Could you please help me clarify whether I still need to undergo physical therapy?Doctor's answer:
Based on your situation, you should be treated in a private hospital, right? Generally, private hospitals dislike treating this way as it doesn't make much money.Recommendation: For vaginal infections and mycoplasma infections, there's no need to be so complicated. For vaginal infections, as long as you confirm what type of bacteria is causing it, you can then treat it accordingly. For fungal vaginal infections, oral fluconazole can be taken, combined with medication inserted vaginally. For bacterial vaginosis or trichomoniasis, oral metronidazole can be used, also combined with medication inserted vaginally for treatment.
