Patient's question:
The other day, when I was having intimate moments with my boyfriend, I felt itchy in my vagina during the process. It was external genital itching that wouldn't stop, and I kept scratching, which really affected the pleasure of the experience. It also came with pain, so we couldn't enjoy ourselves properly. What should I do about vaginal itching accompanied by pain?Doctor's answer:
If it is the vagina that has obvious itching or a bad odor, this is generally a manifestation of vaginal inflammation. If it is severe, it may significantly affect the quality of normal sexual life. Therefore, you should have a hospital perform a routine vaginal discharge examination to confirm the type of inflammation. Then, based on the examination results, use medication to treat it accordingly. During daily life, you must pay attention to personal hygiene, bathe frequently, and change underwear and clothes often. In addition to treating vaginal itching, patients also need to focus on nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, patients should pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
