Patient's question:
Doctor, recently I have been experiencing itching, redness, and swelling in my lower abdomen. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found that I have bacterial vaginosis and ureaplasma urealyticum infection. If I have bacterial vaginosis and ureaplasma urealyticum infection, what internal and external medications would be better to use?Doctor's answer:
Ureaplasma urealyticum is also known as non-gonococcal urethritis. Generally, topical drug treatment is also acceptable in clinical diagnosis and is a relatively common therapeutic approach. For example, potassium permanganate gargling and bathing can also involve the use of antibiotic ointments for urethral application, such as erythromycin. The ideal scenario for these treatments is always to combine them with oral medications from the macrolide class. Bacterial vaginosis is a condition that is difficult to recover from. Patients should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism, as this can only boost their confidence in combating bacterial vaginosis and believe that recovery is definitely achievable.
