Patient's question:
Doctor, I've been feeling uncomfortable in my private area these past few days. It's itchy, but I can't keep scratching it with my hands. When I was using the restroom this afternoon, I also noticed something foreign. What could be causing the itching in my external genital area with brown discharge?Doctor's answer:
There is itching in the external genitalia with brown discharge, which should be what made you scratch it. Alternatively, it could be due to severe congestion of the vaginal mucosa, causing the mucosa to have broken skin and discharge. It's better to go to the hospital for a routine vaginal discharge test before taking medication. If it's not convenient to go for a check-up, you can use Clotrimazole Suppository or Bao Fu Kang Suppository for vaginal insertion. Apply Clotrimazole Cream to the external genitalia. After a week of treatment, if it improves, you can use another course after the next menstrual period to stabilize the condition.Patients directly face the interference of external genital itching, and we should actively adopt treatment measures without avoiding medical consultation. If the external genital itching does not improve after treatment, it is necessary to promptly switch to an alternative treatment plan.
