Patient's question:
June, second episode of illness, external genital itching, excessive vaginal dischargeDoctor's answer:
Fungal infection is related to low immunity and sexually transmitted diseases. It is recommended that both men and women undergo examination and treatment. Vaginas can be cleaned with potassium permanganate solution or sodium bicarbonate solution, and treated with Daktarin suppositories or nystatin suppositories. Antifungal medications such as fluconazole may be taken if necessary. Underwear should be boiled or exposed to sunlight for disinfection. Sexual activity should be avoided during treatment. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
