Patient's question:
Weak all over, extremely painful, and the vagina always feels very itchy, like being bitten by small insects. It's quite worrying. I also pay close attention to personal hygiene, but it's still very itchy. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and it was diagnosed as candidiasis (yeast infection). How is candidiasis treated?Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis, characterized by fungal infection, generally presents with relatively prominent symptoms. It can recur with symptoms such as intense external itching and abnormal vaginal discharge. The primary treatment for this condition involves vaginal douching and the insertion of vaginal suppositories, while oral medication should also be administered concurrently. Since this disease is easily transmitted through sexual activity, it is advisable for both partners to be treated to prevent cross-infection.In addition to seeking proper medical treatment for vaginitis, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a balanced diet and keeping a positive mood. At the same time, patients should be careful to choose a professional hospital for diagnosis to ensure effective treatment.
