Patient's question:
Not long ago, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and was told that I had candidiasis. It seems that my condition has recurred lately, as my leukorrhea often appears as cottage cheese-like discharge with slight itching. My external genitalia are very itchy. Besides the cottage cheese-like leukorrhea, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
If you have a fungal vaginal infection, you can use some medications to suppress it. It is especially important to pay close attention to maintaining good local hygiene and cleanliness in daily life. You can regularly use baking soda for gentle cleaning. It is also crucial to avoid pulling or scratching with your hands and to keep the external genital area dry and clean at all times. In addition to treating the itching of the external genital area, patients should also pay attention to care aspects, 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.
