Patient's question:
Hello, I started experiencing abnormal vaginal discharge around the 20th of last month after sexual activity. My period arrived on the 29th. This month, on the 12th, my vaginal discharge became abnormal again, and I also have itching and some redness in the vaginal area. The discharge is white, and when I use my fingers to extract it, it comes out in small pieces, like green beans in size, with some slightly larger pieces. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition:Hello, it is considered that you may have a vaginal infection. It is recommended that you undergo a routine vaginal discharge test to determine the specific type of vaginal infection for symptomatic treatment.
Guidelines:
Maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia. Avoid scratching, hot water washing, and using soap. When infected, use potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths. Underwear should be breathable, loose-fitting, avoid alcohol, and spicy or allergenic foods.
