Patient's question:
When it happened, there was some bleeding, and in the following days, I started experiencing vulvar itching with some swelling. I feel like my vulva is inflamed, sometimes itchy and painful. What should I do in this situation?Doctor's answer:
Your condition is considered to be vulvitis, which is related to bacterial infection. You need to use topical medications for washing and applying. The topical liquids and creams need to be determined based on the specific medication. Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, and minimize scratching the affected area. In addition to immediate medical treatment, patients should also maintain a proper diet in daily life to digest nutrients. During daily life, it is important to follow a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, drink plenty of hot water, pay attention to keeping warm, avoid getting cold, exercise more, and enhance immunity.
