Patient's question:
CervicitisThe cervix is a bit red
There are many fungi, but it doesn't itch. The doctor said it should itch, what's going on? Is there any other bacteria? Have you encountered such a situation before? Please reply.
Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvitis is an inflammation of the vulva caused by a yeast-like fungus. The most common pathogen is Candida albicans, which is an opportunistic pathogen and primarily causes endogenous infections.Treatment:
1. Eliminate the underlying causes. If diabetes is present, active treatment should be initiated. Discontinue broad-spectrum antibiotics, estrogens, and corticosteroids promptly. Change underwear frequently, and boil used underwear, basins, and towels.
2. Medication: Rinse with a 2%–3% soda solution, gently dry, and place nystatin suppositories deep into the vagina, or apply nystatin cream to the vaginal walls. Use once daily or twice daily (morning and evening) for 10–14 days. Approximately 50%–80% of patients can be cured with this treatment. Those who cannot tolerate local medication may opt for oral medication.
