Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with fungal vaginitis after a thorough examination at the hospital. After taking the medication for over an hour, I had an urgent need to urinate, to the point where I couldn't hold it in. It's been two hours now, and it's still the same. I'm basically squatting outside the toilet, afraid to enter. Is this normal? Can this medication be treated with just a wash?Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned, involving the use of medication for vaginal candidiasis, resulted in the reappearance of urinary frequency and urgency more than an hour after medication. It is highly likely due to an incompatibility or even an allergic reaction to the medication.Recommendation:
Immediately use lukewarm boiled water to clean the external genital area and vagina, and try to remove as much of the medication as possible. Maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genital area, while also drinking plenty of water and urinating frequently. Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear.
Then, carefully monitor the situation. If the symptoms do not improve, seek medical attention immediately.
For patients with vaginal infections, in addition to timely treatment, it is also important to pay attention to maintaining deep sleep. Sufficient deep sleep is essential to help you recover quickly from the condition.
