Patient's question:
I used metronidazole and compound huangsong lotion for a week, but the leukorrhea is still slightly yellow with heavy itching and odor. The doctor suggested I buy Daktar and Clotrimazole cream and baking soda. I have already used metronidazole and compound huangsong for a week. Should I use Daktar after my period or use it directly now? What medicine is most effective for vaginal candidiasis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis is clinically characterized by changes in the nature of vaginal discharge and symptoms such as itching and burning pain in the external genitalia. When the urethra is affected, symptoms like dysuria and urinary urgency may occur. Common types of vaginitis include bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis, and candidiasis. It is recommended that hospitals conduct routine vaginal discharge tests before providing targeted treatment. Blind medication can only worsen the condition and lead to futile efforts. In fact, vaginitis is not something to be feared. Patients should believe in their ability to overcome the illness. As long as treatment is initiated promptly in the early stages, the chances of stabilizing the condition and successful treatment are very high.
