Is trichomoniasis a serious disease?

Patient's question:

The cervix has reappeared with a strawberry-like appearance, external itching, yellow discharge, and it is particularly abundant. Will medication treatment help? The doctor only prescribed oral medication and a wash, but I can only wash the outside. Is this condition serious? How should it be treated? It has reappeared again for a year.

Doctor's answer:

First, if symptoms of vaginitis reappear, it is necessary to undergo etiological testing to identify the type of pathogen causing the infection. Then, targeted medication should be administered for better treatment outcomes. If it has been confirmed that the condition is trichomoniasis vaginitis, it is recommended to use red nucleus solution or dilute salt water to clean the perineum with nursing liquid. Professional dilute salt water can also be used for vaginal irrigation. Additionally, metronidazole suppositories should be inserted vaginally for treatment, which tends to be more effective. During treatment, sexual intercourse should be avoided, and personal hygiene should be maintained properly.
