Patient's question:
There is a boy who touched my vagina with his penis, but we did not have sexual intercourse. After that, my vagina has been itchy ever since. I have tried washing it with clean water every day, sometimes adding salt. It got better for a while, but then it came back. I told my class teacher about it, and she told me to buy metronidazole to use on my vagina every day. I haven't used it yet and don't know if it will help me get better! I'm very scared! Sometimes the itching is unbearable. I don't know what to do! My discharge is yellow, how should I treat it? I hope you can help me! Thank you!Doctor's answer:
Opinion Guidance: Vulvar itching is a symptom that can be caused by various reasons. Local causes include special infections (such as fungal vaginitis, trichomoniasis, pubic lice, scabies, pinworm disease), chronic vulvar malnutrition, drug allergies or chemical irritation, poor hygiene habits, skin diseases, etc. It is recommended that you undergo a detailed examination and follow medical advice for treatment. Do not take medication on your own.
