Doctor's answer:
Hello friend! Vaginitis is mainly caused by three types of infections: trichomoniasis, candidiasis, and bacterial infections. It depends on what type of infection is causing the vaginitis. Different infections require different medications. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a routine vaginal discharge test to confirm the diagnosis and then receive treatment. Also, pay attention to the following:a. Pay attention to hygiene, clean the external genitalia daily, and change underwear frequently. Boil underwear and towels after use, and frequently air out bedding.
b. Avoid scratching. If you have symptoms such as external genital itching, you can use traditional Chinese medicine for external genital washing to soak in the bath. Avoid scratching to prevent damage to the skin and mucous membranes of the external genitalia, which may lead to secondary infections.
c. Stop sexual activity.
d. Avoid spicy foods.
