How is trichomoniasis treated?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have trichomoniasis. Previously, my vaginal discharge was yellow and abundant, with red and swollen vaginal lips, itching, and pain. I also felt discomfort in my lower abdomen and pain in my right waist. After taking medication for a week, my vaginal discharge became like paste. How should I treat trichomoniasis with medication?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, vaginal cleaning and medication treatment is required, along with oral or intravenous medication. Your partner should also receive oral treatment. Suggested treatment: vaginal cleaning and medication, oral or intravenous treatment, your partner takes oral medication. If your partner also has symptoms, they can also receive intravenous treatment. Follow the treatment course, as trichomoniasis tends to recur. Avoid spicy foods during treatment.

Additionally, the patient should maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition. I hope the answers above can help everyone. Thank you.
