Patient's question:
I had a cesarean section on October 18th, and the lochia lasted for more than 30 days. After that, my leukorrhea increased, and it had a foul odor. There was often a gas-like discharge from my vagina, similar to passing gas. In the past two days, I noticed blood in my leukorrhea, but the amount was not significant and came and went. I also have mild abdominal distension and pain, which are also intermittent. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition suggests it may be vaginitis, a common disease in gynecology clinics.It is recommended to use a 2%–3% soda solution to rinse the external genitalia regularly, and it is also important to keep underwear dry. It is best to wash underwear separately.
Generally, doctors will advise patients with postpartum consultation risks to rest in bed and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should pay attention to maintaining a comfortable environment, which is also beneficial for rest.
Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
