Patient's question:
In the past few months, I've felt that the smell down there is quite strong. I feel that others can smell it when they walk past me, which makes me feel very embarrassed. So, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said I have a fungal vaginal infection, which needs to be completely cured. So, how can I completely cure a fungal vaginal infection?Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis requires a thorough and easily recurring cure. You can use a 2% or 3% baking soda solution to rinse the vagina or vulva, and then apply miconazole or clotrimazole vaginally every night before bed for a course of 10 to 14 days. After stopping the medication, recheck the candidal symptoms after seven days. If the symptoms disappear within two weeks of the second recheck, a third recheck is needed to confirm full recovery, after which the treatment can be considered complete. During the medication period, sexual activity is strictly prohibited. In addition to symptomatic treatment for vaginitis, patients also need to pay attention to nursing care.
