Patient's question:
Vaginal itching, redness, and swelling, with a curd-like discharge. Should I use ointment first or seek treatment first?Doctor's answer:
The consideration is that you may have a fungal vaginal infection. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a routine vaginal discharge test to confirm the type of vaginitis. Under the guidance of a doctor, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Fungal vaginitis is quite stubborn and requires a full course of regular medication. It should not be neglected. For the patient, if the condition of vulvar itching is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be given with proper medication. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of vulvar itching. In addition, the patient should also maintain a proper diet and keep a positive mood.
