What should I do if there is an increase in leukorrhea after gynecological surgery?

Patient's question:

I had a gynecological surgery in a hospital in the city 16 days ago. After the surgery, my vaginal discharge has increased significantly, and it's much more noticeable than before. Although it might be due to the surgery, I still feel uneasy. What should I do about increased vaginal discharge after gynecological surgery?

Doctor's answer:

After undergoing gynecological surgery, the symptom of increased vaginal discharge usually occurs due to an inflammatory infection. During this period, it is best to check a vaginal discharge test to identify the type of inflammation and then promptly use symptomatic medication. Additionally, attention should be paid to hygiene and proper cleaning. Medication can be applied vaginally to alleviate the symptoms of increased vaginal discharge. In terms of diet, it is important to avoid greasy foods and spicy, irritating foods.
