Patient's question:
After my monthly cycle this time, I've been experiencing persistent itching in the groin area. It's especially severe at night. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor diagnosed me with candidiasis (yeast infection) and prescribed a cleansing solution and anti-inflammatory medication to take at home. However, in the past few days, I've noticed the same sensation in the groin area again, as if the condition has flared up once more. Why does candidiasis always recur in patients?Doctor's answer:
If the body's immunity is weak or excessive cleaning between the legs is practiced regularly, it may also be due to poor hygiene, all of which could lead to candidiasis. If underwear and outerwear are washed together, it is easy to cause a fungal infection. Pay attention to hygiene in daily life, do not use gynecological cleaning solutions for a long time, underwear should be washed separately and exposed to sunlight, avoid spicy and irritating foods. If the condition is severe, please seek medical treatment promptly.
