What are the treatments for fungal vaginitis?

Patient's question:

I started feeling itchy down there a lot a few weeks ago, sometimes it even hurt. Also, my discharge has increased recently. I've had gynecological issues before, so I knew I might have a gynecological condition. I got checked and found out I have a fungal vaginal infection. This will get better with proper treatment.

Doctor's answer:

Candida infection is recommended to be treated by scrubbing the external genitalia and vagina with an alkaline solution of sodium bicarbonate, followed by inserting nystatin suppositories into the vagina. Applying miconazole cream to the external genitalia afterward can yield better results. Daily cleaning of the external genitalia and vagina with Jieryin can be used, while underwear should be changed every day and washed together with towels and basins. In addition to treating vaginitis, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a cheerful mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
