Patient's question:
The other day, I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend, but we both used condoms. Last summer, I had a thorough check-up for sexually transmitted diseases, and all the results were negative. Now, I have an itchy sensation downstairs and have developed many small growths. Could this be genital warts? My discharge is also very abundant. What should I do now?Doctor's answer:
From the photo, this should be pseudocondyloma, not genital warts. Pseudocondyloma is usually caused by inflammation and generally doesn't cause any discomfort symptoms, so it doesn't require treatment. If there is inflammation, timely treatment is needed, and it's recommended to avoid spicy and irritating foods. Gynecological inflammation is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During treatment, women should pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently.
