Patient's question:
The leukorrhea is yellow and viscous, and the amount is large with some curd-like texture. Recently, it has expanded into a watery state. Sometimes there is a sensation of lower abdominal heaviness, and the external genitalia itch. Hello, what is this disease?Doctor's answer:
It is not advisable to ignore external genital itching, which often occurs inside the vagina, on the outer side of the labia majora, in the mons pubis, on the clitoris and labia minora, and in the perineum, and can spread to the area near the anus. It is a type of localized pruritus. It is often extremely itchy and tends to be worse at night. It often worsens during the menstrual period or after consuming irritating foods. External genital itching is often intermittent, but some cases are persistent, often worsening at night. When severely itchy, it can cause restlessness and discomfort while sitting or lying down. Long-term itching can lead to ulcers, redness, swelling, or secondary infections. Due to prolonged scratching, the affected area may become macerated, thickened, and pigmented. According to clinical diagnosis, if only secondary skin lesions are present without primary skin damage, the diagnosis is relatively easy.
