Patient's question:
Itching in the groin area, redness, swelling, and a discharge like cottage cheese. Regarding past treatment, can I use Li Bai Nian Jing Dan? I am currently using Shen Bai Wash.Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis is a common vaginal disease. Due to its high recurrence rate, many conventional medications can only temporarily worsen symptoms and cannot provide a permanent cure. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has accumulated many highly effective treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese herbs such as Erythrophyllum, fresh basil, photinia leaves, curculigo, epimedium, polygonum multiflorum, and patrinia to treat candidal vulvovaginitis. These herbs are effective and produce quick results. They can achieve the functions of promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, clearing damp-heat, eliminating odor, reducing swelling and pain, and replenishing qi and nourishing blood. These traditional Chinese herbs have a very good therapeutic effect on candidal vulvovaginitis and can completely cure the condition without recurrence.
