Patient's question:
What anti-inflammatory drugs are used to treat candidal vaginitis? A few days ago, I felt itchy in my vagina, and my discharge was particularly abundant, like cottage cheese. Besides the odor, after a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said it was candidal vaginitis. After hearing this, I was very worried. What anti-inflammatory drugs should be taken for candidal vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
1. Candidal vulvovaginitis is caused by a fungal infection. It is a common vaginal inflammation in gynecology, with the onset caused by the continuous increase of glycogen in the vagina and a decrease in acidity, leading to a large-scale adaptation of Candida albicans in the fungus. Treatment methods include basic treatments such as altering the vaginal pH and medication, such as applying antiseptic gel locally, taking oral itraconazole or ketoconazole or clotrimazole, or using local creams or ointments. Daily hygiene can use pH 4 mild acidic feminine care liquid to maintain the self-cleaning function of the vagina.2. The treatment of this condition requires caution and timeliness. It is crucial to seek scientific and effective treatment at a local reputable hospital.
