Patient's question:
Inserting the hand into the vagina is not very frequent, but it has happened a few times. It started to seep blood, but later stopped. Basically, the hand was washed and even wiped with wet wipes. Will this cause vaginitis? If it does, what are the symptoms? Does inserting the hand into the vagina cause vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
The female vagina is connected to the outside world, so even if you don't insert fingers into the vagina, transmission may still occur. This type of transmission is not special and can be comprehensively prevented and treated with topical medications. Medications that can be used include Jie'eryin and Curim cream, which can be inserted or applied into the vagina for better effectiveness. For minor infections, antibiotics such as Ceftriaxone can be used. Sexual activity can be divided into clitoral climax and vaginal climax, which can help relieve stress and regulate hormones, but it should not be too frequent. Vaginitis is a serious condition, and patients are advised to seek timely medical treatment and follow their doctor's recommendations for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to personal care and maintain a proper diet to avoid worsening the condition.
