Patient's question:
Doctor, I've been feeling really uncomfortable in my lower abdomen for a while. There's a lot of discharge coming out, which has never happened to me before. I'm a bit upset about encountering this situation for the first time. It's itchy outside, and there's discharge like little beans. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
If your leukorrhea is like cottage cheese in texture and is accompanied by external genital itching, it should be a manifestation of candidal vulvovaginitis. Candidal vulvovaginitis is caused by a Candida infection, so it is essential to start treatment promptly. This type of vaginitis is very stubborn and requires a period of medication to be cured. During the medication period, sexual activity is strictly prohibited, and spicy foods, fish, shrimp, and other irritating substances should be avoided. In addition to standard treatment for external genital itching, patients should also pay attention to their diet, such as eating a light diet and staying active outdoors. At the same time, patients should pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for treatment to achieve good therapeutic effects.
