Patient's question:
When I worked in a place outside, I took a few days to soak in the local hot springs. After coming back, I've been feeling an increase in leukorrhea for these days, with a bad odor, and severe itching in the external genital area. During sexual intercourse with my husband, I sometimes felt pain. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination of the leukorrhea, and the results showed trichomoniasis.Doctor's answer:
Diet should be light and simple, with an emphasis on eating more fruits, vegetables, and light foods, while also ensuring adequate rest. Pay attention to hygiene and health care during the critical period of menstruation. Maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia at all times, and avoid unclean sexual practices. Undergarments, towels, and other items should be boiled and sterilized, with each boiling session lasting at least 15 minutes. Additionally, using topical medications with Chinese herbal ingredients in conjunction with treatment can lead to more thorough recovery. In addition to taking medication to treat trichomoniasis vaginitis, patients should also pay attention to daily care, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should choose a reputable hospital for diagnosis to ensure effective treatment.
