Patient's question:
Approximately three or four days ago, I've been experiencing persistent itching in the vagina. I've had sexual intercourse, and feel discomfort during urination. Sometimes I also feel the need to urinate more frequently. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
From the symptoms, it is possible that the urinary tract infection is caused by cervicitis, or it may be acute pyelonephritis caused by unsafe sexual practices. Carefully observe any abnormalities in the vaginal discharge, such as color and odor. If the discharge has an odor, it is likely that a gynecological infection is present. It is recommended to first take a bath, and if the symptoms do not stabilize after two days, please go to the hospital promptly for further gynecological examinations to identify the cause and then treat accordingly. The vaginal itching is very severe, and it is advised that the patient seek immediate treatment and follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid spicy foods to prevent worsening the condition.
