Patient's question:
Just finished my period, and now there's itching in the external genital area, a bit severe. What should I do? Please help me, doctors, to clarify this.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, due to reduced physical resistance, external genital moisture and irritation can easily lead to a recurrence of inflammation. It is recommended to rest well first, avoid overexertion, and prevent catching a cold. Always maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the external genital area. It is best to undergo a thorough examination and laboratory tests to identify the specific cause and actively treat and care for the condition. For patients with severe external genital itching, it is advised to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment outcome.
