Patient's question:
I have a fungal vaginal infection, and there is some erosion on my cervix. I received intravenous fluids for two days, with four small bottles each time, while also undergoing two cleaning procedures at the hospital. I have been taking Fuyan Kang and Gongyanping capsules. However, there is still some itching around the vaginal opening. I want to know how to treat a fungal vaginal infection?Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis is recommended to use alkaline solutions such as 2% to 4% sodium bicarbonate or soapy water to clean the external genitalia and vagina, altering the vaginal pH to make it more favorable for fungal growth. After cleaning, insert Nystatin tablets into the vagina once a day, for a 14-day course, and apply Clotrimazole ointment to the external genitalia. Change and sterilize clean underwear daily. Re-examine after the menstrual period. Only when three consecutive gynecological examinations and microscopic examinations of vaginal secretions show no abnormalities can the condition be considered fully cured. In addition, during the treatment of vaginitis, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of vaginitis.
