Patient's question:
Vaginal itching after a thorough examination at the hospital revealed candidal vaginitis. A few days ago, the intense itching made me scratch it until the skin broke.Doctor's answer:
Oral administration of nystatin tablets or vaginal application of nystatin tablets can be used alternately for a course of 7 to 10 days. It is recommended to complete a stable course of treatment. Pay attention to hygiene in daily life, maintain clean external genitalia, eat less spicy and irritating foods, frequently wash underwear with boiling water, and expose them to sunlight for sterilization after washing. Additionally, pay attention to hygiene between partners. For patients, if the vaginal itching is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered with appropriate medication, otherwise it may lead to exacerbation of the condition. Moreover, patients should maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition.
