What are the symptoms of candidal vaginitis?

Patient's question:

I suddenly felt like reading a book today, but the book said that one person got vaginitis and often had stomach pain. A bit worried, they used medicine themselves, but it didn't help. I feel very curious. I want to consult a doctor here: What are the symptoms of candidal vaginitis?

Doctor's answer:

Vaginitis comes in many different types, but the vast majority exhibit symptoms such as itching, redness, swelling, and burning pain. Symptoms of fungal infection include: itching, burning pain, and redness in the perineal area; in severe cases, there may be dysuria. Bacterial vaginosis is characterized by a continuous increase in discharge, accompanied by a strong fishy odor.
① Non-specific vaginitis: The external genitalia and vagina may feel heavy and burning, with a significant shedding of vaginal epithelium, congestion of vaginal mucosa, and pronounced tenderness upon touch.
