Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling itchy down there and want to scratch but can't. There's always yellow discharge. Am I having an inflammation?Past treatment and effectiveness: I didn't pay much attention to it until recently when I started caring about it.
What kind of help do I need: What are the symptoms of gynecological inflammation? Are my symptoms the same as those of gynecological inflammation?
Doctor's answer:
Symptoms of gynecological inflammation are often characterized by vulvar itching, local disorder, increased vaginal discharge, accompanied by symptoms such as frequent urination and dysuria. After diagnosis, active treatment is necessary. If the treatment is not thorough, it can easily lead to repeated recurrence or prolonged non-healing. The main manifestations include cervical congestion and edema, which can progress to cervical erosion in severe cases. Based on your description, it is preliminarily classified as trichomoniasis. Trichomoniasis generally presents with increased vaginal discharge, which can be thin and serous, grayish-yellow or yellowish-green, sometimes mixed with blood, with 20% of the discharge containing foam. Vulvar itching, burning sensation, and painful intercourse are also common. When the infection affects the urethral opening, it can cause dysuria, urinary urgency, and even hematuria.
