Patient's question:
Last week, my colleague invited me to go out for fun. We went to take a hot spring bath, and after coming back, I started feeling unwell. At first, there was some itching in my external genital area, but it was bearable. However, within a few days, the itching became unbearable, and I couldn't even scratch it with my hands. I had no choice but to endure the pain. It was so painful.Doctor's answer:
Pruritus of the vulva refers to a symptom caused by various gynecological diseases. It is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a pleasant mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process. It is advised to undergo a detailed etiological examination of vaginal or cervical secretions at a regular hospital's gynecological department for a clear diagnosis and symptomatic treatment. For patients with severe vulvar pruritus, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements or medications to treat the condition, as this may worsen the symptoms.
