Patient's question:
About a decade ago, I discovered I had candidal vulvovaginitis, and the treatment at that time was effective. In recent years, it has been recurring repeatedly. The past few months, I've been experiencing lower back pain, similar to menstrual cramps, itching in the genital area, and a cottage cheese-like discharge. After a thorough examination by the hospital, it was found that the candidal vulvovaginitis was quite severe, with some pelvic fluid accumulation and a slightly red cervix.Doctor's answer:
Candida infections are recommended to be treated with alkaline solutions, such as sodium bicarbonate, to clean the vulva and vagina. For patients, if the condition of vaginitis is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered with proper medication. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of vaginitis. Additionally, patients should maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition. It is hoped that the answers to the above questions can assist everyone. During treatment, it is also necessary to rest in bed. Avoid strenuous exercise, maintain a calm mood, and do not have excessive stress.
