Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What kind of medicine should I take for candidal vulvitis?Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvitis can be treated by scrubbing with sodium bicarbonate solution, followed by local application of clotrimazole cream. This should be combined with oral antifungal medications such as fluconazole or itraconazole. During this period, it is important to maintain a light diet, avoiding greasy and irritating foods, as well as spicy foods. Pure cotton underwear should be worn, and the underwear should be exposed to sunlight or washed with high temperatures.
