Patient's question:
Recently, my diet and sleep patterns have been normal, and I haven't eaten spicy or irritating foods. Am I sick? How should I handle this?Doctor's answer:
It has been found that abnormal white discharge with a curd-like appearance indicates the presence of candidal vaginitis. It is recommended to visit a regular public hospital gynecology department for follow-up. If the diagnosis is candidal vaginitis, it can be treated with vaginal medication. Generally, it takes about 1 to 2 weeks to heal on its own. During this period, it is important to maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia and wear cotton underwear with good breathability, changing them daily. For patients with increased white discharge, in addition to medication for relief, it is also necessary to pay attention to self-care training. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay close attention to hygiene.
