Patient's question:
My symptoms are a white discharge like cottage cheese, severe vaginal itching with a fishy odor, which has been going on for a year. I often use Jie'eryin to clean the outside, and have tried Miconazole Nitrate Suppositories, which have given some relief, but my symptoms frequently recur. I have already started getting a thorough medical examination at the hospital. The doctor examined my discharge and prescribed Soda Water for the vulva, Sanjin Tablets, Miconazole Nitrate Suppositories, and a vaginal medication containing Seabuckthorn (dark brown).Doctor's answer:
Candida infection is recommended to be treated by scrubbing the external genitalia and vagina with an alkaline solution of sodium bicarbonate, followed by inserting nystatin suppositories into the vagina. Applying clotrimazole cream to the external genitalia afterward can yield better results. Daily cleaning of the external genitalia and vagina with Jieryin can also be helpful. Additionally, it is important to change underwear daily and wash it together with towels and basins. The daily treatment for vaginitis primarily focuses on symptomatic relief. Patients can take various oral medications, supplement with vitamins, and maintain a regular schedule while avoiding alcohol. We hope that vaginitis patients can recover quickly! Thank you!
