After a miscarriage for 26 days, it's unbearably itchy between the legs, what's going on?

Patient's question:

After a miscarriage for 26 days, my abdomen doesn't hurt at all, but the lochia is far more than just blood. I have vulvar itching and small bumps. My discharge is like cottage cheese. I went to the pet hospital to get checked and was prescribed medication, as well as a decoction to stop lochia. I took it for 4 days, and the bumps below have disappeared, and it's no longer itchy. On the fourth day, I ate spicy hot pot, yellow peaches, and mixed it with carbonated drinks. Yesterday morning, when I went to bed, I felt extremely itchy between my legs and couldn't scratch it. Today, it's still itchy and painful. What is going on?

Doctor's answer:

You are 26 days postpartum, and besides vaginal bleeding, it's possible that your uterus has not fully recovered. Vaginal itching could be a sign of vaginitis. You can go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to check the condition of your uterus and take medication for treatment. Also, have a routine vaginal discharge test done. If you have vaginitis, you cannot use vaginal medication for treatment at this time; instead, you need to be given medication for topical application. In daily life, it's also important to maintain a positive attitude and accept treatment.
