Patient's question:
I am a mother of a baby. When I gave birth, I decided to have a natural delivery, but it resulted in an infection at the urethral opening, and my vagina was also infected. Now, I always feel itchy inside my vagina, and it feels very dry. I want to know if this is a gynecological disease? What are the types of gynecological inflammation?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help clarify this for you. Regarding the itching inside the vagina you mentioned, the first thing to consider is vaginitis, which is primarily characterized by vaginal itching, changes in vaginal discharge, and sometimes accompanied by symptoms such as redness, swelling, and pain in the external genitalia. Your previous urinary tract infection is not relevant to this.I recommend that you visit a hospital for a routine vaginal discharge examination to determine which type of vaginitis it is. Gynecological inflammation is a common gynecological condition. During medication, women should pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet. Finally, I wish female patients a speedy recovery.
