Patient's question:
I felt itchy outside my vulva 3 or 4 days ago. The doctor said it was a fungal vaginal infection. I've been dealing with it for a few days now, but it's not getting better. I'd like to ask, what medicine should I use?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in this case, you can first use metronidazole injection to rinse the vagina. Generally, it should be used continuously for 7-15 days after the menstrual period. Insert 2 tablets of nystatin into the deep part of the vagina each day, apply nystatin ointment to the external genitalia, and use it continuously for 3 months. During treatment, sexual intercourse should be avoided. Maintain good hygiene habits and follow a scientific diet. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects a woman's life but also leads to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to go to the gynecology department of a hospital for a gynecological examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the perineal skin clean.
