Patient's question:
I felt severe lower back pain two weeks ago, with yellow, purulent discharge that had a slightly unpleasant odor. There was no itching in the external genital area, but the amount was not significant. This symptom reappeared two days before my period was about to end. It must be what is known as abnormal vaginal discharge. What assistance is needed: How should I seek medical attention when abnormal vaginal discharge reappears?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is necessary to consider the possibility of vaginitis. I suggest you go to the hospital for a vaginal discharge test to identify what kind of inflammation it is, and then receive targeted treatment. The treatment is generally based on washing and inserting medications. During medication, you should avoid sexual activity, frequently clean the external genitalia, change your underwear often, and maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Pay attention to hygiene, rest, and avoid getting cold. You can try washing with clean water or Honghe lotion to see if it improves.
