Patient's question:
After giving birth to my second child, I haven't paid much attention to my own health, so now I've been affected by gynecological diseases. Yesterday, I had a thorough check-up at the hospital, and the doctor confirmed it was candidiasis. How can candidiasis be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
Candidal vaginitis may have endogenous infection, and there may be mutual infection between the mouth and the intestine. It can manifest as severe itching, external genital congestion and edema, and a curd-like discharge. Under the guidance of a doctor, solutions such as Honghe Fumei liquid, 2% to 4% baking soda for external washing, and vaginal miconazole troches can be used. Generally, medication is required for one week, and the medication should be stopped after recovery to prevent recurrence. During treatment, sexual activity must be strictly prohibited. Underwear should be sterilized and exposed to sunlight. Used basins, underwear, and towels should be washed with hot water. Additionally, during the treatment of vaginitis, besides medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial.
