What causes redness and pain in the external genitalia?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Also, what could be causing the redness and pain in the external genitalia?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it might be vaginitis. It is recommended to pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the external genital area clean and dry. Avoid scratching, hot water washing, and using soap. When infected, use potassium permanganate solution for Sitz baths. Underwear should be breathable and loose. Avoid alcohol and spicy or allergenic foods. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects women's lives but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to go to the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine examination, 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.
