Patient's question:
These past few nights, I haven't been able to sleep at all. Every night when I try to fall asleep, I always feel a severe itch in my external genital area. After scratching, it becomes a bit painful, and sometimes it even breaks the skin. Additionally, there's some vaginal discharge, and the leukorrhea is greenish, along with the external genital itching. How should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
Leukorrhea turns green, vulvar itching. First, consider trichomoniasis or severe cervical inflammation as the cause of these symptoms. Oral metronidazole tablets or ornidazole capsules can be taken, along with vaginal suppositories for treatment. Common medications include metronidazole suppositories, curcumol suppositories, or polypyrrole sulfone suppositories, among others.A 7-day course is recommended. When taking metronidazole, be extremely careful—avoid drinking beer at all costs. Vulvar itching is difficult to relieve. Patients should maintain a positive mindset and face the condition with optimism. Only in this way can they boost their confidence in overcoming vulvar itching and believe that recovery is definitely possible.
