Patient's question:
I have candidiasis (yeast infection) and used suppositories. However, it tends to recur easily. This time, I used Compound Furong Effervescent Suppositories, which is a traditional Chinese medicine. But is it free of side effects? Can it completely cure my candidiasis? How many courses of treatment are needed for it to heal without recurring?Doctor's answer:
According to the patient's description, generally three courses of treatment are needed to try this medication. Use the medication for 7 days after each menstrual period, alternating between three courses. Pay attention to maintaining local hygiene at all times, using clean and dry external application, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Patients directly face the distress of vaginitis and should promptly implement symptomatic treatment principles. Do not avoid seeking medical attention. If vaginitis does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly switch to an alternative treatment plan.
