Patient's question:
The other day, there was sexual activity, and recently, there's been a discharge of yellow fluid from the groin area. There's no pain, itching, or odor. Due to lack of time to visit the hospital for a thorough examination, could medication be used to alleviate the symptoms for now? Can vaginal inflammation be treated with medication first?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms are not severe, so it is recommended not to take medication casually and pay attention to personal hygiene. Daily hygiene should be maintained, using a dedicated basin and warm water to clean the vulva, keeping the vulva clean and dry, changing underwear frequently and choosing breathable materials, and frequently exposing bedding to sunlight. Avoid spicy foods, drink more yogurt, which helps maintain the normal acidic environment of the vagina. Vaginitis is a very serious condition, and patients are advised to seek timely symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to personal care and proper diet to avoid worsening the condition.
