After 12 days of postpartum care, there is itching below, can I take a bath?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness.
Could you please tell me if it's okay to take a bath when the area below is itchy after 12 days of postpartum care?

Doctor's answer:

This could be caused by inflammation or infection. In this case, it is best to have a routine vaginal discharge test at the hospital, or you can use medications like Wufejia for external washing. Pay attention to personal hygiene. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects women's lives but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have an ultrasound examination at the gynecology department of the hospital to identify the cause and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
